'Castro's book is an important one for scholars of the eighteenth century: by illuminating the centrality of the marriage plot, it offers fresh, cogent arguments about Fielding's drama and the relationship between theatre and fiction in the period.' Emma Major, Centre for Eighteenth-Century Studies, University of York 'This is not only a book that reshapes our perceptions of Henry Fielding's literary achievement. Anaclara Castra Santana reveals that the marriage plot is at the heart of the ethics and aesthetics of the most popular genres of the eighteenth century: the novel and the theatre ' -- Ros Ballaster, Faculty of English, Mansfield College, University of Oxford
