Ian Robinson traces the legacy of prose writing as a form distinct from verse. Engaging with histories of rhetoric and the work of the great prose writers, Robinson provides a bold reappraisal of this literary form, and shows how the sentence itself is historically conditioned and no older than the post-medieval world.
