Description

Explore a landmark literary study and the first fully critical edition of Henry Neville's 1668 work, The Isle of Pines. This volume by John Scheckter provides a deep look into a short fiction of shipwreck and discovery that has only recently begun to receive critical attention. Through this study, readers can examine how Neville's writing critiques scientific discourse and addresses complex themes of race and gender. The text also looks at the methods and consequences of European exploration during this era. As the first full-length study of its kind, this book serves as a new critical model for applying post-colonial perspectives to historical literature. This edition is essential for scholars and students interested in 17th-century literature, the history of exploration, and the evolution of literary theory. It brings much-needed academic focus to Neville's work, providing the necessary context to understand its place in the history of fiction and political thought.
