Description - The Nineteenth-Century Novel: Realisms by Delia da Sousa Correa
The volumes in this series explore the scope and variety of the great novels of the nineteenth century. The essays in this collection, Realisms, trace the experimentation of nineteenth-century writers in advancing new modes of realist fiction while revitalizing the inheritance of the Gothic and the Romantic. Focusing on some of the most popular novels of the century ( Northanger Abbey, Jayne Eyre, Dombey and Son, Middlemarch, Far from the Madding Crowd and Germinal ), this attractive volume explores some of the recurring themes in nineteenth-century fiction: * aspiration and vocation * social class * sexual politics * Political reform * colonialism and commerce. This is an ideal introduction to some of the major fictional achievements of the first industrial era, and to most of the crucial themes in nineteenth-century fiction. If you are a student of the novels of this period, you will find this volume an indispensable source.
