*Royal Romances *explores the reception of the royal family during the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, and its representation in fiction, poetry, and the popular press. Samuelian finds that popular response to the royal family has reflected the public’s belief in their right of access to the private life of royalty, and in their license to understand and interpret it through representation.
