While poetry has been the genre most closely associated with the
Romantic period, the novel of the late eighteenth and early
nineteenth centuries has attracted many more readers and students
in recent years. Its canon has been widened to include less well
known authors alongside Jane Austen, Walter Scott, Maria Edgeworth
and Thomas Love Peacock. Over the last generation, especially, a
remarkable range of popular works from the period have been
re-discovered and reread intensively. This Companion offers an
overview of British fiction written between roughly the mid-1760s
and the early 1830s and is an ideal guide to the major authors,
historical and cultural contexts, and later critical reception. The
contributors to this volume represent the most up-to-date
directions in scholarship, charting the ways in which the period's
social, political and intellectual redefinitions created new
fictional subjects, forms and audiences.
