Emrys Jones 
Friendship and Allegiance in Eighteenth-Century Literature [PDF ebook] 
The Politics of Private Virtue in the Age of Walpole

Support

Friendship and Allegiance explores the concept of friendship as it was defined, contested and distorted by writers of the early eighteenth century. Setting well-known canonical texts (The Beggar’s Opera, Gulliver’s Travels) alongside lesser-known works, it portrays a literary world renegotiating the meaning of public and private virtue.
