Book excerpt: George Moore's critics have been more than usually content to restrict their comments on his work to straightforward "influence" studies, seeing him as a mere cipher, a slate upon which all the trends of his time were written. Such criticism tends to reduce Moore's early novels, in particular, to mere pastiches, collections of borrowed passages, and generally reveals more about the originals than about the works themselves. This thesis attempts to examine the artistic value, without neglecting the "influential" value, of the three realistic novels of Moore's early period: A Mummer's Wife (1885), A Drama in Muslin (1886) and Esther Waters (1894). These three novels are fine works of art in their own right, quite apart from what they reveal about the cross-currents of literary influence between France and England near the end of the nineteenth century. A Mummer's Wife is a complex and powerful literary creation as well as the first English novel to display the influence of French naturalism; A Drama in Muslin is a richly-textured Victorian "social" novel as well as the first English novel to display the influence of French symbolism; and Esther Waters is an almost perfect blend of naturalism into the Victorian tradition to produce a novel which is both "modern" and a fine instance of English realism. This study shows, among other things, that Moore was closer to the English fictional tradition than has been generally supposed, that even in the first part of his novel-writing career he modified Zola's naturalistic formula in complex and subtle ways, that he could write a successful Victorian "society" novel complete with a sympathetic omniscient narrator, and that all three of these novels (which have female main characters, a fact which has interesting feminist implications) are comparable in artistic quality to many better-known Victorian novels. Such an independent assessment of A Mummer's Wife, A Drama in Muslin and Esther Waters is needed both to demonstrate the artistic strengths of these hitherto-neglected novels, and to place George Moore in the literary context he demands.

Book excerpt: George Augustus Moore (1852-1933) was an Irish novelist, short story writer, poet, art critic, memoirist and dramatist. His first book, a collection of poems called The Flowers of Passion, had appeared in 1878 and a second collection, Pagan Poems, followed in 1881. His first novel, A Modern Lover (1883), was banned in England because of its, for the times, explicit portrayal of the amorous pursuits of its hero. His next book, A Mummer's Wife (1885) is widely recognized as the first major novel in the realist style in the English language. Other realist novels by Moore from this period include Esther Waters (1894), the story of an unmarried housemaid who becomes pregnant and is abandoned by her footman lover, and A Drama in Muslin (1886), a satiric story of the marriage trade in Anglo-Irish society. His 1887 novel A Mere Accident is an attempt to merge his symbolist and realist influences. He also published a collection of short stories: Celibates (1895). In 1913, he traveled to Jerusalem to research background for his novel The Brook Kerith: A Syrian Story (1916).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Mummer's Wife. A Mummer's Wife By George Moore. George Augustus Moore (24 February 1852 – 21 January 1933) was an Irish novelist, short-story writer, poet, art critic, memoirist and dramatist. Moore came from a Roman Catholic landed family who lived at Moore Hall in Carra, County Mayo. He originally wanted to be a painter, and studied art in Paris during the 1870s. There, he befriended many of the leading French artists and writers of the day.As a naturalistic writer, he was amongst the first English-language authors to absorb the lessons of the French realists, and was particularly influenced by the works of Émile Zola. His writings influenced James Joyce, according to the literary critic and biographer Richard Ellmann, and, although Moore's work is sometimes seen as outside the mainstream of both Irish and British literature, he is as often regarded as the first great modern Irish novelist.A Mummers Wife (1885) was regarded as unsuitable by Mudie's and W H Smith refused to stock it on their news-stalls. Despite this, during its first year of publication the book was in its fourteenth edition mainly due to the publicity garnered by its opponents. As with A Modern Lover, his two next novels, A Mummers Wife and A Drama in Muslin, were banned by Mudie's and Smith's. In response Moore declared war on the circulating libraries by publishing two provocative pamphlets; Literature at Nurse and Circulating Morals. In these, he complained that the libraries profit from salacious popular fiction while refusing to stock serious literary fiction.
