THE CULTURE OF CRIME: REPRESENTATIONS OF THE CRIMINAL IN EIGHTEENTH-CENTURY ENGLAND A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of the Louisiana State University and Agricultural and Mechanical College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in The Department of English By Daniel Gonzalez B.A., Bucknell University, 1992 M.A., McNeese State University, 1995 M.F.A., McNeese State University, 1995 May 2002 Acknowledgments First, I owe a tremendous amount of gratitude to my dissertation director, Dr. Jim Borck, for his continuing encouragement and friendship during this lengthy process. Dr. Elsie Michie has also been a strong voice of encouragement, and without the guidance and support of both of these mentors, this dissertation would never have been completed. When I grow up to be a professor, I want to be just like them; they have helped me more than either can ever know.
