P N Furbank, W R Owens

A Political Biography of Daniel Defoe

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Furbank and Owens attempt to disentangle the story of Daniel Defoe's political career, as journalist, polemicist, political theorist and secret agent. They argue that this remarkable career calls for a good deal of rethinking, not least because biography and bibliography are here inextricably intertwined.
