Download or read book Tragedy in the Victorian Novel written by Jeannette King and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1978-01-26 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How does one dominant literary genre fall into decline, to be superseded by another? The classic instance is the rise of the novel in the nineteenth century, and how it came to embody the tragic vision of life which had previously been the domain of drama. Dr King focuses on three novelists, George Eliot. Thomas Hardy and Henry James. All three, while trying to offer a realistic picture of life in prose narrative, wrote with the concept of tragedy clearly in mind. The concern was widespread, and Victorian literary critics found themselves discussing the problem of how one might reconcile concepts as dissimilar as tragedy and realism. Their criticism provides Dr King with her starting point. Dr King examines the work of her three authors in relation to the large concepts of traditional tragic thought, and also examines how the form of specific novels was affected by their differing ideas of tragedy.

Download or read book The Descent of the Imagination written by Kevin Z. Moore and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 1993-09 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Descent of the Imagination places Thomas Hardy's writing within the context of nineteenth-century fiction writing as a genre. Moore therefore regards his examination of Hardy's work as a form of archaeology as well as a genealogy of the romantic figure in fiction, from Wordsworth through Hardy. The book provides a new interpretation of Hardy's method of composition and uses new source material that will interest Hardy scholars. It offers an original view of the novelist that argues that his work, especially his later writings, were a deliberate rewriting of romanticism.

Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2007 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 3.0, University of Marburg (Institut für Anglistik und Amerikanistik), course: 10 090 00016 HS: “The English Novel: From the Beginnings to the 21st Century”, language: English, abstract: This term paper focuses on the topic of gender and the investigation of Hardy’s portrayal of women as it emerges from the novel. In order to prove my thesis, I will reflect in how far Hardy follows major trends of Victorian fiction in The Mayor of Casterbridge. Next, I will depict the Victorian ideal of women with regard to fiction and society. Finally, I will prove my claim that Hardy’s ambivalent view of women, which embraces both conventional and modern ideals, is valid for The Mayor of Casterbridge, because it portrays women both as inferior and superior. Accordingly, I will show that Hardy’s heroines deviate from the prevalent Victorian ideal of women. Therefore, I will analyse crucial aspects like Hardy’s authorial point of view as well as Henchard’s relationship to Susan, Lucetta, and Elizabeth-Jane, in the novel. My thesis matters because “[...] the appeal of Hardy as a novelist [...] has long been vital, increasingly so in recent years [...]”. Besides, “[t]he tension [...] of Hardy’s representation of women [...] makes his work one of the richest and most complex sources of feminist commentary in the realist novel”. Recent criticism of Hardy focused on Marxist and feminist theories by reassessing Hardy’s novels as revolutionary. This issue remains important because women have been oppressed for centuries, while Hardy’s fiction contributed to the women’s struggle for emancipation.
