N2  - This book examines the relationship between the revival of romance and the ascendancy of the novel in British literary culture between 1765 and 1850. The revival of romance as the literary form of a pre-modern cultural identity provided a metaphor for the lost origins to account for the otherness of fiction to the world of historical importance
