This book is an edited text of Oroonoko, a seventeenth-century novel of love, passion, and the struggle for human dignity written by England's most eminent woman playwright, poet, and novelist of the day. The novel tells the story of a great African warrior who falls victim to treachery. As a result, he finds himself a slave in what is now Dutch Guinea.

This book considers why narrative realism in literature is seen as a 'full account' of 'real life' and the individual self. Unconventionally, Carnell shows that the formal conventions of narrative realism emerged in the seventeenth century in response to an explosion of partisan writings that put into play competing versions of political selfhood.
