This course explores a variety of primary source material in order to reflect the diversity of print culture between 1740 and 1820. Poetry, fiction, and essays will be examined alongside pedagogical theory, discourses on elocution and aesthetics, and visual art. Throughout the course, we will consider our own experience as readers of eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century texts in relation to reading practice during the period. How did rising literacy rates and innovations in textual production and circulation influence form, genre, and taste?
