Romances Of The Archive In Contemporary British Fiction

Attribution
Suzanne Keen
Publication Details
Book, University of Toronto Press, 2001
Description
Romances of the Archive in Contemporary British Fiction is a lively discussion of the debates about the uses of the past contained in British fiction since the Falklands crisis. Drawing on a diverse and original body of work, Suzanne Keen provides a detailed examination of the range of contemporary ‘romances of the archive,’ a genre in which British novelists both deal with the loss of Empire and a nostalgia for the past, and react to the postimperial condition of Great Britain.

Fabricating History : English Writers On The French Revolution

Attribution
Barton R. Friedman
Publication Details
Book, Princeton University Press, 1988
Description
Barton Friedman demonstrates the ways in which English men of letters in the nineteenth century attempted to grasp the dynamics of history and to fashion order, however fragile, out of its apparent chaos. Their works on the French Revolution and the Napoleonic Wars occupy the boundary between history and fiction, and Fabricating History advances the current lively discussion of that boundary.
