{"product_id":"reading-with-the-burneys-sophie-coulombeau-9781009532945","title":"Reading with the Burneys: Patronage, Paratext, and Performance","description":"This Element offers a multidimensional study of reading practice and sibling rivalry in late eighteenth-century Britain. The case study is the Aberdeen student and disgraced thief Charles Burney's treatment of Evelina (1778), the debut novel of his sister Frances Burney. Coulombeau uses Charles's manuscript poetry, letters, and marginalia, alongside illustrative prints and circulating library archives, to tell the story of how he attempted to control Evelina's reception in an effort to bolster his own socio-literary status. Uniting approaches drawn from literary studies, biography, bibliography, and the history of the book, the Element enriches scholarly understanding of the reception of Frances Burney's fiction, with broader implications for studies of gender, class, kinship and reading in this period. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sophie Coulombeau\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1009532944\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781009532945\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 06\/27\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 75\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.66lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.25d","brand":"Sophie Coulombeau","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46739149684991,"sku":"9781009532945","price":64.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_dd61e279-11ef-4418-acd2-7cd2ae43e2ae.jpg?v=1743277363","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/reading-with-the-burneys-sophie-coulombeau-9781009532945","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
