This pathbreaking collection of original essays surveys an
important but neglected topic: anonymous publication in England for
the Elizabethan age to the present. An impressive group of scholars
analyzes a wide range of literary phenomena including: Shakespeare
in 17th century commonplace books; the phrase 'By a Lady'; the
implied author of an eighteenth century queer fiction; Bentley and
the battle of books; essays by Equiano (?); the novel, 1750 - 1830;
Frankenstein's unnamed monster; the co-authored pseudonym Michael
Field; nineteenth century ghostwriting; and a postmodern hoax on
national identity. The editor's introduction places the essays
within the context of the historical trajectory of anonymous
authorship. Essential reading for anyone interested in authorship
and the history of the book.
