Edited by Kevin L. Cope, Samara Anne Cahill
Part of the 1650-1850 series
Hardback
Description
Exploratory, investigative, and energetically analytical, 1650–1850 covers the full expanse of long eighteenth-century thought, writing, and art while delivering abundant revelatory detail.
Essays on well-known cultural figures combine with studies of emerging topics to unveil a vivid rendering of a dynamic period, simultaneously committed to singular genius and universal improvement.
Welcoming research on all nations and language traditions, 1650–1850 invites readers into a truly global Enlightenment.
Topics in volume 29 include Samuel Johnson’s notions about the education of women and a refreshing account of Sir Joseph Banks’s globetrotting.
A guest-edited, illustration-rich, interdisciplinary special feature explores the cultural implications of water.
As always, 1650–1850 culminates in a bevy of full-length book reviews critiquing the latest scholarship on long-established specialties, unusual subjects, and broad reevaluations of the period. Published by Bucknell University Press, distributed worldwide by Rutgers University Press.
