Writing the Reader [EPUB ebook]
Configurations of a Cultural Practice in the English Novel

Cover von Dorothee Birke: Writing the Reader (ePUB)

The history of the novel is also a history of shifting views of the value of novel reading. This study investigates how novels themselves participate in this development by featuring reading as a multidimensional cultural practice. English novels about obsessive reading, written in times of medial transition, serve as test cases for a model that brings together analyses of form and content.
