Inhaltsangabe:

The study of historical fiction challenges historians to think about the central question of what historical knowledge consists of and how it can be conveyed. This excellent study highlights modern fictional treatments of major historical events, using the tools of narratology and consciousness studies among others, to show what historians can miss, but shouldn’t miss. This book draws fine line(s) between historical fiction and history and it will be an important contribution to our understanding of historical fiction.
