Subject:

Description:

Forms like travel writing, erotic fiction, the sentimental story, and the gothic make up the early novel; each of these crowd-pleasing subgenres was dominated by female authors. We will read examples of these experimental--and often strange--varieties of the proto-novel, by Behn, Haywood, Burney, Radcliffe, and Austen.
