• 書目註：Reading Gossip in Early Eighteenth Century England is an innovative account of eighteenth century literature that establishes the productive role of gossip. Identifying Queen Anne's England (1702-1714) as a crucial moment in gossip's public life, Parsons demonstrates that gossip mediated the cultural and political demands of secrecy and openness and modeled an interpretative strategy that shaped readers' participation in both literary culture and in public debates. Focusing on the reader as both an individual agent and a rhetorical figure, Reading Gossip offers new accounts of texts by Delarivier Manley, Daniel Defoe Edmund Curll and Jane Barker, and provides the first analysis of reading practicesin the crucial decades between early modernity and the British enlightenment Includes bibliographical references and index
