New Resource Trial: Nineteenth Century Collections Online: European Literature, 1790-1840: The Corvey Collection.

Thanks to the eccentric buying of Victor Amadeus, of Castle Corvey, the collection contains the best selection of popular fiction in English between 1798 and 1834 to be found anywhere. There are many rare and several unique works. Novels which were generally treated as ephemera were here preserved virtually untouched for two centuries.Gothic fiction poster boy and TCD Alumnus Charles Maturin is represented, natch! Who can you find?
