Download or read book A Companion to Literary Biography written by Richard Bradford and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2018-09-12 with total page 632 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An authoritative review of literary biography covering the seventeenth century to the twentieth century A Companion to Literary Biography offers a comprehensive account of literary biography spanning the history of the genre across three centuries. The editor – an esteemed literary biographer and noted expert in the field – has encouraged contributors to explore the theoretical and methodological questions raised by the writing of biographies of writers. The text examines how biographers have dealt with the lives of classic authors from Chaucer to contemporary figures such as Kingsley Amis. The Companion brings a new perspective on how literary biography enables the reader to deal with the relationship between the writer and their work. Literary biography is the most popular form of writing about writing, yet it has been largely neglected in the academic community. This volume bridges the gap between literary biography as a popular genre and its relevance for the academic study of literature. This important work: Allows the author of a biography to be treated as part of the process of interpretation and investigates biographical reading as an important aspect of criticism Examines the birth of literary biography at the close of the seventeenth century and considers its expansion through the eighteenth, nineteenth and twentieth centuries Addresses the status and writing of literary biography from numerous perspectives and with regard to various sources, methodologies and theories Reviews the ways in which literary biography has played a role in our perception of writers in the mainstream of the English canon from Chaucer to the present day Written for students at the undergraduate level, through postgraduate and doctoral levels, as well as academics, A Companion to Literary Biography illustrates and accounts for the importance of the literary biography as a vital element of criticism and as an index to our perception of literary history.

Download or read book Charles Dickens the Writer and His Work written by Barbara Hardy and published by Windsor, Berkshire, England : Profile Books. This book was released on 1983 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Writers and their Work series contains three essays on Dickens, an account of biographical and critical studies by K.J. Fielding and appreciations of the early and the late novels by Trevor Blount and Barbara Hardy respectively. Professor Hardy's present essay, the third Writers and their Work Special, combines a biographical introduction with a complete survey of the novels, sketches, and other prose works. Dickens originally learned his craft as a journalist and the essay begins with a chapter on his first descriptions of London, Sketches by Boz: it traces the process whereby his observation of city life and social change gradually developed into an elaborate fictional technique. Of the early novels Oliver Twist and Nicholas Nickleby are the most fully discussed, with especial attention to Dickens' insight into criminal psychology in the former. In the later novels, beginning with Bleak House, Hardy finds a closer unity of theme and structure, the result of the firmer grasp of social criticism which Dickens displays during the 1850?s and 1860?s. There had been plenty of exposure of contemporary injustices and abuses in the earlier fiction, but in the later the confrontation between rich and poor has become more urgent, the comedy less carefree, the comic and serious elements more closely blended. In these later novels too, Hardy notes an effort to bring the imagination more closely to bear upon the inner life of the principal characters. Dickens does not attempt the kind of novel which is shaped by inner action as George Eliot and Henry James were to do: he keeps an external focus on society but strives within this dimension for a fuller access to the inward conflicts of characters such as Edith in Dombey and Son and Pip in Great Expectations. Barbara Hardy (1924-2016) was Professor of English at Birkbeck College, University of London. Her publications include The Novels of George Eliot: A Study in Form; The Appropriate Form: An Essay on the Novel; Middlemarch: Critical Approaches to the Novel; Critical Essays on George Eliot; The Moral Art of Dickens; The Exposure of Luxury: Radical Themes in Thackeray; A Reading of Jane Austen; Tellers and Listeners: The Narrative Imagination; and The Advantages of Lyric, Particularities: Readings in George Eliot.
