{"product_id":"mapping-mythologies-marilyn-butler-9781107116382","title":"Mapping Mythologies: Countercurrents in Eighteenth-Century British Poetry and Cultural History","description":"In this groundbreaking work of revisionary literary history, Marilyn Butler traces the imagining of alternative versions of the nation in eighteenth-century Britain, both in the works of a series of well-known poets (Akenside, Thomson, Gray, Collins, Chatterton, Macpherson, Blake) and in the differing accounts of the national culture offered by eighteenth-century antiquarians and literary historians. She charts the beginnings in eighteenth-century Britain of what is now called cultural history, exploring how and why it developed, and the issues at stake. Her interest is not simply in a succession of great writers, but in the politics of a wider culture, in which writers, scholars, publishers, editors, booksellers, readers all play their parts. For more than thirty years, Marilyn Butler was a towering presence in eighteenth-century and romantic studies, and this major work is published for the first time.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Marilyn Butler\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1107116384\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781107116382\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/10\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 237\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.10w x 1.60d","brand":"Marilyn Butler","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45896536523007,"sku":"9781107116382","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_da34c5e3-403a-430e-adb2-4ca29d650347.jpg?v=1721371666","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/mapping-mythologies-marilyn-butler-9781107116382","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
