Hidden Rivalries in Victorian Fiction: Dickens, Realism, and Revaluation
ISBN: 9780813116228 / Angielski / Twarda / 1996 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Victorian fiction has been read and analyzed from a wide range of perspectives in the past century. But how did the novelists themselves read and respond to each other's creations when they first appeared?

Meckier argues that nineteenth-century British fiction should be seen as a network of intersecting reactions and counteractions in which the novelists rethought and rewrote each other's novels as a way of enhancing their own credibility. In an increasingly... Victorian fiction has been read and analyzed from a wide range of perspectives in the past century. But how did the novelists themselves read and r... |

Dickens's Great Expectations: Misnar's Pavilion Versus Cinderella
ISBN: 9780813122281 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Dickens scholar Jerome Meckier's acclaimed Hidden Rivalries in Victorian Fiction examined fierce literary competition between leading novelists who tried to establish their credentials as realists by rewriting Dickens's novels. Here, Meckier argues that in Great Expectations, Dickens not only updated David Copperfield but also rewrote novels by Lever, Thackeray, Collins, Shelley, and Charlotte and Emily Bronte. He periodically revised his competitors' themes, characters, and incidents to discredit their novels as unrealistic fairy tales imbued with Cinderella motifs....

Innocent Abroad: Charles Dickens's American Engagements
ISBN: 9780813153780 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In 1842, Victorian England's foremost novelist visited America, naively expecting both a return to Eden and an ideal republic that would demonstrate progress as a natural law. Instead, Charles Dickens suffered a traumatic disappointment that darkened his vision of society and human nature for the remainder of his career. His second tour, in 1867-68, ostensibly more successful, proved no antidote for the first. Using new materials -- letters, diaries, and publishers' records -- Jerome Meckier enumerates the reasons for the failure of Dickens's American tours. During the first, an...
