Description:

Argues that, although Fielding condemned romance, he shared virtually the same aesthetic assumptions as Mme. de Scudery and other heroic novelists. Calling this tradition of seventeenth-century epics in prose the Heliodoran novel, Lynch analyzes how romance conventions serve a clear aesthetic purpose.
