520    $a "This volume aims to present an authoritative and suggestive exploration of the sentimental novel in the eighteenth century. 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.
