Chadwyck-Healey Editorial Statement:
Early English Prose Fiction
contains English prose works from the period 1500-1700, by writers
from the British Isles. In general, first editions have been used, except
when a later edition was deemed more appropriate. Exlcuded are non-fictional
prose, translations (with the exception of Argenis from Barclay's Latin)
and medieval 'survivals': works written before the period but printed within
it. Each work in the database is keyed in full, including all prefatory
matter and annotation by the original author. Bibliographic details
of each of the editions used are included as are illustrations integral to the
text and errata lists.
