Conversable Worlds: Literature, Contention, and Community 1762 to 1830
Mee, Jon (Professor of Romanticism Studies, University of Warwick)

A welter of publications-periodical essays, novels, and poetry-enjoined the virtues of conversation and were enthusiastically discussed in book clubs and literary societies, creating their own conversable worlds.
