McMaster's lively study looks at the various codes by which
Eighteenth-century novelists made the minds of their characters
legible through their bodies. She tellingly explores the discourses
of medicine, physiognomy, gesture and facial expression, completely
familiar to contemporary readers but not to us, in ways that enrich
our reading of such classics as Clarissa and Tristram Shandy , as
well as of novels by Fanny Burney, Mary Wollstonecraft and Jane
Austen.
