Tracing the emergence of different reading audiences, this groundbreaking study explores why some books originally written for a mixed-age readership eventually became children's literature, while others became adult novels. Spanning the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, it discusses authors including Daniel Defoe, Samuel Richardson, Charles Dickens and Henry James.
1. Introduction; 2. Rewriting Robinson Crusoe: age and the island; 3. Dating Pamela: Mr B., Goody Two-Shoes, and the age of consent; 4. Rational moralists, highland barbarians, and the taste for adventures; 5. Educating Dickens: Old Boys, Little Mothers, and school time; 6. 'The time of real amusement': Henry James and the cult of adulthood.
