In five parts, the chapters cover the Middle Ages to the present. The volume introduction and methodology chapters define key concepts for investigating the interdependence of these two art forms and a concluding chapter looks to the future of this interdisciplinary field.

Автор: Ann Campbell Название: Families of the Heart: Surrogate Relations in the Eighteenth-Century British Novel ISBN: 1684484243 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781684484249 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 125400.00 T Наличие на складе: Нет в наличии. Описание: In this innovative analysis of canonical British novels, Campbell identifies a new literary device—the surrogate family—as a signal of cultural anxieties about young women's changing relationship to matrimony across the long eighteenth century. By assembling chosen families rather than families of origin, Campbell convincingly argues, female protagonists in these works compensate for weak family ties, explore the world and themselves, prepare for idealized marriages, or sidestep marriage altogether. Tracing the evolution of this rich convention from the female characters in Defoe's and Richardson's fiction who are allowed some autonomy in choosing spouses, to the more explicitly feminist work of Haywood and Burney, in which connections between protagonists and their surrogate sisters and mothers can substitute for marriage itself, this book makes an ambitious intervention by upending a traditional trope—the model of the hierarchal family—ultimately offering a new lens through which to regard these familiar works.

Автор: Hamish Mathison Название: Restoration and Eighteenth-Century Literature ISBN: 0748623760 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780748623761 Издательство: Bloomsbury Academic Рейтинг: Цена: 73920.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: This Edinburgh Critical Guide maps the emergence of the English novel against rich and exciting changes in poetry, drama and popular print. Perfect for undergraduate students, it discusses Milton's Paradise Lost , Pope's The Rape of the Lock , Behn's Oroonoko , Defoe's Robinson Crusoe , Richardson's Pamela and Sterne's Tristram Shandy , plus examples of Restoration drama, satire, song, popular and print culture. Each text is placed in its political, social and economic context, while each chapter examines in detail extracts from key canonical texts alongside discussion of lesser-known texts and intellectual currents. The book concludes with an overview of current critical debates in the field, and deals with the tricky bridge between writing of the eighteenth century and Romanticism. The book tells a story of literary evolution, which promotes engagement with the canon and current critical debates, while establishing pathways towards further reading and lesser-known authors.

Oliver Название: Narrative Mourning: Death and Its Relics in the Eighteenth-Century British Novel ISBN: 1684481929 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781684481927 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 125400.00 T Наличие на складе: Нет в наличии. Описание: Narrative Mourning explores death and its relics as they appear within the confines of the eighteenth-century British novel. It argues that the cultural disappearance of the dead/dying body and the introduction of consciousness as humanity's newfound soul found expression in fictional representations of the relic (object) or relict (person). In the six novels examined in this monograph—Samuel Richardson's Clarissa and Sir Charles Grandison; Sarah Fielding's David Simple and Volume the Last; Henry Mackenzie's The Man of Feeling; and Ann Radcliffe's The Mysteries of Udolpho—the appearance of the relic/relict signals narrative mourning and expresses (often obliquely) changing cultural attitudes toward the dead.

The handbook offers a comprehensive introduction to the British novel in the long eighteenth century, when this genre emerged to develop into the period’s most versatile and popular literary form. Part I features six systematic chapters that discuss literary, intellectual, socio-economic, and political contexts, providing innovative approaches to issues such as sense and sentiment, gender considerations, formal characteristics, economic history, enlightened and radical concepts of citizenship and human rights, ecological ramifications, and Britain’s growing global involvement. Part II presents twenty-five analytical chapters that attend to individual novels, some canonical and others recently recovered. These analyses engage the debates outlined in the systematic chapters, undertaking in-depth readings that both contextualize the works and draw on relevant criticism, literary theory, and cultural perspectives. The handbook’s breadth and depth, clear presentation, and lucid language make it attractive and accessible to scholar and student alike.
