Wednesday, October 28, 2009 - 3:18pm
Scott Black / SCSECS

Following recent literary historians who have argued for a "geographically wider, historically longer, and more morphologically diverse" history of the novel, this panel will consider the eighteenth-century British novel in the context of romance, a genre organized by translation and formal variety. What does the "novel" look like if we adopt the heuristic of "romance" and its long, transnational, and less modern contexts?
