The Life and Adventures of Sir Launcelot Greaves by Tobias Smollett
Driven into a "love melancholy" by the apparent loss of fair Aurelia Darnel, Smollett's noble knight embarks on a series of philanthropic adventures in which, Hamlet-like, his mask of lunacy acts to point up the madness of English society, corrupted by cynicism and greed.At Barnard College, Basker is the Richard Gilder Professor of Literary History. Tobias Smollett: Critic and Journalist and Amazing Grace: An Anthology of Poetry on Slavery, 1660-1810 are among the books he has written or edited. Many volumes, including Sexuality in Eighteenth-Century Britain, were written and published by the late Paul-Gabriel Bouce, a professor at the University of Paris. Seary works at the Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History as a researcher.
