The Self and It: Novel Objects in Eighteenth-Century England - Hardcover

by Julie Park (Author)

The Self and It makes a fresh and bold intervention in histories and theories of the rise of the novel by arguing that the material objects proliferating in eighteenth-century England's consumer markets worked in conjunction with the novel as vital tools for fashioning the modern self.
