INSCRIBED to a recipient with first name only as a token of admiration and regard and SIGNED by the author: Bill. WARNER, WILLIAM BEATTY. Licensing entertainment: the elevation of novel reading in Britain, 1684-1750. Berkeley: University of California Press, 1998, 1st printing number line ending in 1, xvi, 325pp., . What happens to the culture of early modern Britain when the relatively new communications technology of print, developed to promote the highest purposes of religion, law, and education, is instead appropriated as a medium for entertainment? William Warner shows how the earliest British novels, published in small portable format, underwrote the freedom and pleasure of readers, and in so doing provoked an early instance of the modern anxiety about the effects of new media on consumers. Novels have been a respectable component of culture for so long that it is difficult for twentieth-century observers to grasp the unease produced by early novel reading. Warner uncovers a buried and neglected history of the way the novel was shaped in response to a newly vigorous market in narratives. In order to rein in the sexy and egotistical novel of amorous intrigue, novelists and critics redefined the novel as morally respectable, masculine, British, realistic, and, finally, literary. Warner emphasizes the role of early novelists as entertainers and media workers, and shows how the short, erotic, plot-driven fiction written by Behn, Manley, and Haywood came to be absorbed and overwritten by the novels of Defoe, Richardson, and Fielding. His account replaces the history of the rise of the novel with a more inclusive cultural history. 9780520212961 ISBN 0520212967. …
