'British culture underwent radical change in the eighteenth century with the emergence of new literary genres and discourses of social analysis. As novelists developed the fictional form, writers of economic tracts and treatises sought a language and a conceptual framework to describe the modern commercial state...In a series of fresh readings of a wide range of novels, Bellamy shows how the novel contributed to the debate over public and private virtues and had to negotiate between commercial and anti-commercial ethics. The resulting choices were crucial in determining the structure as well as the moral content of the novel.' Pp.viii/223. Blue cloth, dustwrapper sllightly rubbed. VG/VG.
