Palgrave Studies in the Enlightenment, Romanticism and the Cultures of Print will feature work that does not fit comfortably within established boundaries—whether between periods or between disciplines. Uniquely, it will combine efforts to engage the power and materiality of print with explorations of gender, race, and class. By attending as well to intersections of literature with the visual arts, medicine, law, and science, the series will enable a large-scale rethinking of the origins of modernity. Titles include: Melanie Bigold WOMEN OF LETTERS, MANUSCRIPT CIRCULATION, AFTERLIVES IN THE EIGHTEENTH CENTURY Elizabeth Rowe, Catharine Cockburn, and Elizabeth Carter
