Satire, Instruction and Useful Knowledge in Eighteenth-Century Britain: The Enlightenment Mock Arts
Bullard, Paddy (University of Reading)
The early Industrial Revolution was not ignored by eighteenth-century writers. They addressed it in the Enlightenment Mock Arts, a curious genre of satires that fed into Gulliver's Travels, Tristram Shandy and Belinda. Paddy Bullard traces the oblique strategies that these authors used to avoid the constraints of Enlightenment instrumentalism.
