This important book, now in paperback, explores epistolary forms
and practices in relation to important areas of British culture.
Who wrote letters? Who read letters? What were the conventions of
letters and how were they understood? Each chapter explores these
questions in relation to a series of characters, including men and
women of letters, parents, lovers, criminals, citizens, travelers,
historians and Christians. Bringing together a wide range of
epistolary materials, both non-fictional and fictional, this
original and important study gives extensively-researched
understanding of the central place of letters in eighteenth-century
writing, and a new way of looking at eighteenth-century life. The
volume will be of immense value to literary scholars and historians
alike, and marks an important milestone in eighteenth-century
studies.
