Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Eighteenth-Century Novel in Theory and Practice: A Dissertation The investigation begins with the novel of character, and includes within its compass the literary productions by leading authors only, from Richardson to Godwin. The inordinate length of many eighteenth-century novels made it apparent from the outset that a detailed study of every English novel in this period would be impossible within the scope of this dissertation. But such, fortunately, was not necessary; for the really great novelists blazed the trail and pointed the way. Writers of less importance added no new theory, nor did they vary the practice except wherein imitation and inferior literary talents led to cor ruption. Very few references have been made to their works;' for in what they said and did, they but reflected the judgments of their superiors. Their opinions would not materially strengthen this work.

Download or read book What Made the Eighteenth Century Writers and Their Novels written by Stefano Mochi and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2023-05-26 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines eighteenth-century novels, with a focus on the skills that readers were expected to master in order to read these works. It analyses how such skills were shaped by the cultural and political climate of the time. Starting with a review of the debate on education that began in England in the eighteenth-century and the way it was influenced by philosophers such as John Locke, it then discusses the demands that novelists like Defoe, Fielding, Sterne, Godwin, Smollett and Richardson made concerning this subject. Various scientific, philosophical, religious and linguistic theories are used to examine the issues above: Chaos Theory, Wittgenstein’s idea of “logical space”, Grice’s cooperative principle, Aristotle’s poetics and de Molinos’ Quietism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reading the Eighteenth-Century Novel is a lively exploration of the evolution of the English novel from 1688-1815. A range of major works and authors are discussed along with important developments in the genre, and the impact of novels on society at the time. The text begins with a discussion of the “rise of the novel” in the long eighteenth century and various theories about the economic, social, and ideological changes that caused it. Subsequent chapters examine ten particular novels, from Oroonoko and Moll Flanders to Tom Jones and Emma, using each one to introduce and discuss different rhetorical theories of narrative. The way in which books developed and changed during this period, breaking new ground, and influencing later developments is also discussed, along with key themes such as the representation of gender, class, and nationality. The final chapter explores how this literary form became a force for social and ideological change by the end of the period. Written by a highly experienced scholar of English literature, this engaging textbook guides readers through the intricacies of a transformational period for the novel.
