A scolding in Exmoor language between sisters Wilmot Moreman & Thomasin Moreman

The 18th century was a period of abundant knowledge, exploration, and rapid technological growth, thanks to advances in the printing press and the expansion of record-keeping. In order to preserve this revolutionary century, Gale initiated a digital revolution of epic proportions by digitizing an extensive archive of invaluable works. Now, for the first time, these high-quality digital copies of original 18th-century manuscripts are available in print, making them easily accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars.

Western literary study has its roots in the works of 18th-century authors such as Alexander Pope, Daniel Defoe, Henry Fielding, Frances Burney, Denis Diderot, Johann Gottfried Herder, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, and others. Readers can experience the birth of the modern novel or compare the development of language using dictionaries and grammar discourses.
