Résumé

Présentation de l'éditeur The Crisis of Courtesy explores the metamorphosis of British courtesy-literature from the 17th to the 19th centuries. It shows how the preoccupation with conduct provided the subject-matter of such diverse literary forms as poetry, the essay and the novel. Biographie de l'auteur Jacques Carré, Docteur-ès-Lettres (1980), is Professor of English at the Université Paris IV-Sorbonne. He has published extensively on the sociology of art and literature in 18th and 19th century Britain.
