Romances of Free Trade: British Literature, Laissez-Faire, and the Global Nineteenth Century
Celikkol, Ayse (Assistant Professor of English, Assistant Professor of English, Bilkent University)
Drawing on works by Walter Scott, Dickens, Charlotte Brontë, and others, Romances of Free Trade offers a new account of the cultural work of romance in nineteenth-century Britain, arguing that novelists and playwrights employed the genre to represent a radically new historical formation: the emergence of the global free-market economy.
