Scott, his precursors and the violent past. 330 8 $a"The British historical novel has often been defined in the terms set by Walter Scott's fiction, as a reflection on a clear break between past and present. Reinventing Liberty challenges this view by returning us to the rich range of historical novels written in the late eighteenth-century. It explores how these works participated in a contentious debate concerning political change and British national identity. Ranging across well-known writers, such as William Godwin, Horace Walpole and Frances Burney, to lesser-known figures, including Cornelia Ellis Knight and Jane Porter, 'Reinventing Liberty' reveals how history becomes a site to rethink Britain as 'land of liberty' and positions Scott in relation to this tradition."--$cUnedited summary from book. 410 0$aEdinburgh critical studies in romanticism. 606 $aHistorical fiction, English$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00958030 606 $aEnglish literature$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00911989 606 $aHistorical fiction, English$xHistory and criticism 606 $aEnglish literature$y19th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aEnglish literature$y18th century$xHistory and criticism 608 $aCriticism, interpretation, etc. 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aHistorical fiction, English. 615 0$aEnglish literature. 615 0$aHistorical fiction, English$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aEnglish literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aEnglish literature$xHistory and criticism. 676 $a810/820 700 $aPrice$b Fiona L.$0904315 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 912 $a9910132494103321 996 $aReinventing liberty$92022000 997 $aUNINA LEADER 00846nam a22002171i 4500 001 991000536529707536 005 20021015154148.0 008 021015s1967 gr |||||||||||||||||gre 035 $ab12019306-39ule_inst 035 $aARCHE-010910$9ExL 040 $aDip.to Filologia Ling. e Lett.$bita$cA.t.i.
