Reviews

This is a beautifully written and beautifully argued book... I come away from it with a new perception. -- Cynthia Wall Studies in English Literature Marshall demonstrates an enviable facility with the English, French, and German canon, and at points produces close readings of difficult texts that are nothing short of tour de force. -- Richard Kroll Eighteenth-Century Fiction The Frame of Art has already received a major accolade: the Louis Gottschalk Prize awarded by the American Society for Eighteenth-Century Studies. It is not hard to see why. -- Richard Kroll Eighteenth-Century Fiction This book succeeds so brilliantly in its interpretative perspectives. -- Stefan H. Uhlig Modern Philology Thought-provoking and scrupulously researched. -- Denise Gigante Eighteenth-Century Studies

An outstanding work that will instantly be recognized as a major contribution to eighteenth-century literary and artistic studies. Its interpretations are brilliant, its scholarship impeccable. - Michael Fried, The Johns Hopkins University A brilliant study of how to think about 'aesthetic' experience in a time just beginning to formulate critical questions about the aesthetic. - J. Paul Hunter, University of Chicago
