Representing the diversity of interests within the eighteenth-century studies community, the latest volume in this distinguished series includes eighteen essays that range chronologically from the mid-seventeenth century to the early nineteenth century and geographically from the Italian peninsula to the American colonies on the eve of the revolution. A distinguished group of contributors addresses subjects such as alienation and exile, the rise of the novel as a genre, challenges to Enlightenment rationalism, gender and the Other, and the rise of the New Science.
