Download or read book A Reader's Guide to the Twentieth-century Novel in Britain written by Randall Stevenson and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 1993-01-01 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The novel is the major literary phenomenon of the twentieth century, and its development in Britain since 1900 has reflected the tumultuous changes that have characterized modern society. Randall Stevenson now presents an accessible and authoritative guide to the work of th ecentury's leading novelists as well as many of its lesser known writers. In this stimulating and wide-ranging account, Stevenson locates the work of individual writers, from Conrad to Jeanette Winterson, within an evolving literary history and the wider context of social, political, and cultural change. Included are British writers working in exile and writers with origins elsewhere, such as James and Rushdie, who have chosen to work in Britain. Women novelists are accorded their rightful prominence. This clear and lively survey deals with a broad range of movements, including modernism and postmodernism, as well as the influence of other world literatures and the impact of two world wars. An ideal text, this is a 'guide' in the best sense—concise and lucid, well-informed and perceptive. Readers new to the field will appreciate Stevenson's clear direction, while the experienced will be delighted by newly revealed connections and fresh perspectives.

An attempt has been made to incorporate the feelings, emotions, disturbances, instabilities of the Man that was represented in Muriel Spark works through her Characters. The moments, desires, fears that dwells in the mind of the character for which they are not responsible.

This book acknowledges the journey of the novelist who becomes more confident in writing her second novel. Readers can see her journey who has accepted her life as full of meaning, hall-marked by design and purpose. Muriel Spark - a singular voice of 20th century literature a novelist, poet, and essayist, she has style, she has charm, she has wit, she’s profound, she’s serious, she’s religious, she’s political. ‘and I went on my way rejoicing ’.

Download or read book English Gothic Literature written by Derek Brewer and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 1983-03-01 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The centuries between 1100 and 1500 were the crucible in which English language and literature, after the blow of the Norman Conquest, were reformed with results that affected all later times. The national language and literary culture were reconstructed influences. The medieval centuries present a fascinating success story of recovery, inventiveness and major achievement in all aspects of national life. In literature, lyric verse, narrative poetry, drama and discursive prose were all established in characteristic modes. In the present book many works are discussed, while such masterpieces as the works of Chaucer, Langland's Piers Plowman, the poems of the Gawain-poet and Malory's Morte Darthur are shown as the secular equivalent in words of the great medieval Gothic cathedrals. The forms of this varied body of literature had as characteristic a period style as contemporary Gothic art and architecture themselves. English literature may equally be described as Gothic, with assumptions and achievements which both lead to and contrast with later Neoclassical styles. Black and white photographic illustrations further the comparison and suggest some background. English Gothic literature derives from many interrelated social context - court, town, monastery and countryside. It was recorded in manuscripts that blend the qualities of popular speech and folktale with some of the more impersonal regular qualities of printing, that last of fundamental medieval inventions. In this new concept of the history of medieval literature, Derek Brewer illuminates the major literary works with detailed exposition to make them available to the reader coming fresh to them. At the same time he places them in the context of developing literacy and individualism, secular realism, romantic love, personal religion, etc., setting forth a coherent framework of cultural history which will challenge the interest of those who already know the period.
