Search this Resource

Description: Early English Prose Fiction contains 211 works in English prose by writers from the British Isles from the period 1500-1700. The authors and works were selected under the guidance of the Editorial Board to meet the needs of academic teaching and research, and provide a representative view of the prose fiction of the period. A single edition of each work, usually the first, has been included. The Early English Prose Fiction Database is the result of a collaboration between Chadwyck-Healey and the Salzburg Centre for Research on the Early English Novel (SCREEN) who made the choice of texts and editions. The entire text of each individual work has been included, with all prefatory matter and annotation by the original author. All accompanying material, such as illustrations, contents pages, appendices, lists of subscribers, dedications, errata lists, etc. also appears. Publisher's advertisements for other texts have been excluded. (Source: vendor website.)
