Thomas Leonard-Roy explores the writings of six canonical authors--Alexander Pope, Samuel Johnson, James Boswell, Horace Walpole, Frances Burney, and Lord Byron--to illuminate the ways in which hatred became a particularly vital and animating emotion in eighteenth-century literature, partly as a result of the burgeoning print market of the period.
