This volume brings together the work of bibliographers, literary scholars and socio-cultural historians to present a new European perspective on the rise of the novel. Contributors offer a sustained critical reflection on the historiography of the genre across Europe, focusing on England, France, Germany, Spain, Italy, Russia and Greece. Key themes include the role played by the development of the nation-state and by travel and translation in shaping novelistic discourse.
