Making Gender, Culture, and the Self in the Fiction of Samuel Richardson (PDF eBook)

Description

Proposing that Samuel Richardson's novels were crucial for the construction of female individuality in the mid-eighteenth century, Latimer argues that Grandison must be recognised as Richardson's final word on his re-envisioning of the gendered self. She calls for a rigorous rereading of the novel as a basis for reassessing Richardson's fictional oeuvre that has implications for fresh thinking about the eighteenth-century novel.
