Defoe’S Major Fiction: Accounting For The Self - 9781611496130

This book argues that recent materialist approaches to Defoe are insufficiently attentive to the dominant preoccupations of his fictional oeuvre, which center on moral accountability and self-definition, and addresses Defoe's characters, narration, aesthetic, and ethical experiments that constitute his innovative achievements in the novel form.
