The Rhetoric of Diversion in English Literature and Culture, 1690–1760
Domingo, Darryl P. (University of Memphis)
A study of how literature of the early eighteenth century represented a newly fashionable life of amusement and diversion. Chapters explore a range of diversionary preoccupations and argue that the devices of digressive wit adopt similar forms and fulfil similar functions in literature as do diversions in eighteenth-century culture.
