This book begins with two fatal duels, as the most apt introduction to a literary period best defined by its antagonisms. Exploring three publishing phenomena of the age; the novels of Walter Scott, Byron's Don Juan, and the new literary magazines, it attempts a radical reconfiguration of our understanding of literary culture after Waterloo.
