Description:

This volume aims to guide the student through the fundamentals of the realist novel genre. Focusing on two aspects, the formal and historical, it shows how writers such as Jane Austen and Charles Dickens used the realist novel to tell profoundly moral tales in a popular way.

Synopsis:

This book guides the student through the fundamentals of this enduring literary form. By using carefully selected novels and discussing a wide range of authors including Emily Dickinson and John Kincaid, the authors provide a lively examination of the particular themes and modes of realist novels of the period. This is the only book currently available to provide such a wide range of primary and secondary material and is the prefect resource for a literature degree.
