Opis

The author breaks with old critical commonplaces that contrast Fielding's -masculinity- with Samuel Richardson's -feminine- sensibilities. She argues that a preoccupation with the tenuousness of gendered identity appears throughout Fielding's writings, and that Fielding shared that preoccupation with his contemporaries.
