Description

Offering a revisionist account of the history of the novel in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, Lauren Gillingham contends that nineteenth-century novelists found in fashion a temporal model for articulating a heightened sense of the evanescence of modernity and the cycle of novelty and obsolescence that organizes contemporary life.
