Category: Literary Criticism

In recent years the canon of eighteenth-century poetry has greatly expanded to include women poets, labouring-class and provincial poets, and many previously unheard voices.This book questions some of the structures, categories, and labels that have given the age its reassuring shape in literary history. In doing so it offers a fresh and detailed look at a wide range of material.
