Sensibility and Economics in the Novel argues that the sentimental
novel, usually seen as a 'feminine' genre concentrating exclusively
on emotional response, is in fact actively involved in contemporary
economic and political debates. Spanning the period encompassing
the rise, heyday and decline of sentimentalism, the book considers
how the trajectory of the movement affected the sentimental novel's
use of discourses of economics, sensibility and femininity, and
assesses the impact of the pressures of the post-Revolutionary
1790s on these areas.
