Charlotte Smith and the Sonnet: Form, Place and Tradition in the Late Eighteenth Century (Romantic Reconfigurations Studies in Literature and Culture 1780 1850)

This book explores Charlotte Smith's Elegiac Sonnets and clarifies its 'place' - understood in multiple ways - in literary history. It argues that Smith's work engages more deeply with tradition than has hitherto been realised and revises our understanding not only of Smith's career but also of the sonnet in eighteenth-century England.
