Sentimental novels reached the height of their vogue in the 1770s and 1780s and were still popular in the 1790s. Their origins may be traced to the so-called amatory fiction published in France and Britain in the late seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries. Samuel Richardson's spectacularly popular reworking of amatory fictional tropes, Pamela: or, Virtue Rewarded (1740), with its emphasis on feeling, sympathy and moral instruction, served as a catalyst for this literary movement"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 0 $a The sentimental novel and politics / Gary Kelly -- Sensible readers: experiments in feeling in early prose fiction by women / Ros Ballaster -- Reading for the sentiment: Richardson's novels / Bonnie Latimer -- The virtuous in distress: David Simple, Amelia, Memoirs of Miss Sidney Bidulph / Barbara M.
