broadly, is there a distinction between a novel with a “message” and a didactic novel? There are cross-pollinations and interactions among these that are worth further exploration. On a lesser note, the suggestion in the afterword that didactic novels by radical writers have not “heretofore been recognized” (199) is surprising, as their existence has been previously acknowledged in my own work and others. Didactic Novels and British Women’s Writing provides a valuable recon­ sideration of didactic fiction by women writers at the end of the long eighteenth century. It is a useful resource for scholars of didactic novels, as well as any reader interested in developing a more nuanced understanding of literary production and genre during the period. Its theorization of didactic fiction and attention to the generic innovations of women writers are long overdue, and compellingly show that the didactic novel is not formulaic, dull, or constricting, but a complex and multifaceted literary form that is worthy of closer examination.

写给世界:信件和现代印刷体裁的起源蕾切尔·斯卡伯勒·金(Rachael Scarborough King)

从广义上讲,有“信息”的小说和说教的小说有区别吗?这些之间存在异花授粉和相互作用,值得进一步探索。稍微说一下,后记中关于激进作家的说教小说“迄今尚未得到认可”(199)的建议令人惊讶,因为它们的存在之前已在我自己和其他人的作品中得到承认。《说教小说和英国女性写作》对 18 世纪末女性作家的说教小说提供了宝贵的反思。对于教学小说的学者以及任何有兴趣对这一时期的文学作品和体裁有更细致入微的理解的读者来说,它都是一个有用的资源。
