Manuscript and the practice of meaning: a study of Romantic-period fiction
The work is a comparative study of the creative methods of five Romantic novelists: Jane Austen, William Godwin, Mary Shelley, Walter Scott and Frances Burney. It is in the Romantic period that we first encounter in abundance working manuscripts: of draft materials in the hands of the author or a copyist, and of proofs showing revisions. By contrast with those of their poet contemporaries (Wordsworth, Coleridge and Shelley), novelists' manuscripts have received little attention. Yet novelists too discover meaning through processes whose trace is found on the page.
