Abstract | Up until the latter half of the eighteenth century, readers would have seen little distinction between novels and religious books. A further, and to my mind less convincing argument is that the emergence of the novel in the eighteenth century was related to a change in reading practices: from discontinuous reading (dipping in and out of books) to continuous (cover-to-cover) reading.
