That Better Whiles May Follow Worse (2016) and The Spectre of Defeat: Experience, Memory and Post-Memory (2021). David Owen is Associate Professor of English Literature at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. His research interests focus mainly on English novelistic fiction of the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. Particularly, he is interested in the history of the English Novel, its origins and development, and-within that-the formal and artistic properties of the epistolary novel as it affected and was affected by socio-political changes in fiction writing and reading. In terms of individual writers, his research is principally concerned with the works of the English novelist, Jane Austen. He has published broadly in these ambits. He is also the co-editor of Writings of Persuasion and Dissonance in The Great War. That Better Whiles May Follow Worse (2016) and The Spectre of Defeat: Experience, Memory and Post-Memory (2021).
