Thomas O. Beebee offers a history of epistolary fiction as a major phenomenon practiced across Europe from the Renaissance to the midnineteenth century. He shows how epistolary fiction appropriated the status and power the letter had already acquired, and goes on to explore a number of related discourses and themes, including the letter writing manual, selfreferential aspects of the letter, news and travel reporting, the relationship between letters and gender, and historicallyspecific letter writing by eighteenth and nineteenthcentury authors including Austen, Balzac, and Dostoevsky. There is a bibliography of major European epistolary fiction to 1850.
