Opis

This first scholarly edition expertly situates Thomas Love Peacock's most ambitious satirical novel in its historical and literary contexts.

Recenzje

'With their meticulous notes, rigorous documentation of textual variants and generous contextual appendices (including two unperformed, unpublished farces that Peacock drew on for Headlong Hall), these fine new volumes in the Cambridge Edition of the Novels of Thomas Love Peacock get us closer than ever to the nuances of his satire.' Thomas Keymer, the Times Literary Supplement
