The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly
growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by
advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve
the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own:
digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works
in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these
high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts
are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries,
undergraduate students, and independent scholars.Western literary
study flows out of eighteenth-century works by Alexander Pope,
Daniel Defoe, Henry Fielding, Frances Burney, Denis Diderot, Johann
Gottfried Herder, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, and others.
Experience the birth of the modern novel, or compare the
development of language using dictionaries and grammar discourses.
