Domestic Space in Eighteenth-Century British Novels - by Karen Lipsedge (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

Examining the work of three authors: Richardson, Haywood and Burney, and their representation of domestic space, this book argues that to make such spaces accessible to modern readers they need to have information of the real domestic. By recreating specifics of these spaces this book innervates the fictional domestic interior for modern readers.
