In particular, it provides a framework for understanding the novel's evolving relationship with history (as event, as historiography) in the period. 606 $aEnglish fiction$xFrench influences 606 $aEnglish fiction$y18th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aEnglish fiction$y19th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aLiterature and history 607 $aFrance$xHistory$yRevolution, 1789-1799$xLiterature and the revolution 615 0$aEnglish fiction$xFrench influences. 615 0$aEnglish fiction$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aEnglish fiction$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aLiterature and history. 676 $a813 700 $aRooney$b Morgan$01578613 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910786479503321 996 $aThe French revolution debate and the British novel, 1790-1814$93858182 997 $aUNINA
