edition, published in three volumes by Lackington, Hughes, Harding,
Mavor, and Jones, in which only obvious typographical errors have
been corrected.

His provocative argument for a new historicized understanding of the genre and its early readers brilliantly reveals unexpected affinities. Patricia Meyer Spacks, Edgar F.
