The Rise Of The Novel

Recently read: The Rise Of The Novel by Ian Watt.

Dr. Bluemel putting this book on our syllabus last spring ended up working out really well for me in two ways. First, it offered a lot of guidance to my reading, and rereading, at the time of the novels of Richardson, Defoe, and Fielding. Second, the second chapter The Reading Public & The Rise Of The Novel gave me some important background information about the history of publication and authorship for my MA thesis.
