These commissioned essays from an international team of contributors comprises a general overview of all Hardy' s work and specific demonstrations of Hardy's ideas and literary skills. Individual essays explore Hardy's biography, aesthetics, his famous attachment to Wessex, and the impact on his work of developments in science, religion and philosophy in the late nineteenth century.

This book was released on 2023-12-25 with total page 4582 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thomas Hardy: The Complete Novels (The Giants of Literature - Book 22) encompasses all of Hardy's major works in one comprehensive volume, showcasing the author's mastery of storytelling, poetic language, and profound exploration of human emotions. From the tragic romance of Tess of the d'Urbervilles to the social critique in Jude the Obscure, Hardy's novels transport readers to the rugged landscapes of Wessex, where characters grapple with fate, morality, and societal constraints. His rich prose and intricate narratives make each novel a timeless masterpiece that continues to captivate readers across generations. The inclusion of lesser-known works sheds light on Hardy's evolving style and thematic concerns, making this collection essential for any literature enthusiast seeking a deeper understanding of Victorian fiction. Thomas Hardy's own life experiences as a rural writer and social observer greatly influenced his penetrating portrayals of human nature and the harsh realities of rural life. His background as an architect and passion for poetry are evident in the meticulous construction of his plots and lyrical descriptions of nature. These insights into Hardy's personal struggles and creative process enrich the reader's appreciation for the depth and complexity of his novels. I highly recommend Thomas Hardy: The Complete Novels to readers who appreciate thought-provoking literature that delves into the complexities of human existence. This collection serves as a gateway to explore Hardy's enduring legacy as one of the most significant writers of the Victorian era, offering profound insights into the human condition and the timeless themes that continue to resonate in contemporary society.

Download or read book Thomas Hardy written by Peter Widdowson and published by Northcote House Pub Limited. This book was released on 2007 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thomas Hardy still seems to speak to us, in fiction and in poetry, as 'our contemporary'. This second edition of Peter Widdowson's study identifies the elements in Hardy's work which enable him to be read thus: the focus on unstable class and sexual relationships in a society undergoing rapid change; the highly-charged representations of women at the heart of this process; the self-reflexive artifice of the writing itself as an aspect of Hardy's 'satiric' view of a 'new Dark Age'. Professor Widdowson shows where this radical and destabilizing Hardy is to be located in the texts, while also seeking to recast our conventional conception of Hardy the Poet. For this new edition, the author has updated the bibliography and included a 'Postscript" on film and TV adaptations of Hardy's fiction, since many newcomers to it now first experience his work in this medium. This study offers a comprehensive guide to reading Hardy anew as a writer who challenges our assumptions about art and life.

Book excerpt: Hardy's Geography reconsiders a familiar element in Hardy's novels: their use of place and, specifically, of Dorset. Hardy said his Wessex was a 'partly real, partly dream-country'. This study examines how reality and dream interact in his work. Should we look for a real place corresponding to Casterbridge? What is the relation between one person's feelings for a place and society's view of it. Pite concludes that Hardy addresses these issues through a distinctive regional awareness.

Download or read book Thomas Hardy's Novel Universe written by Pamela Gossin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this, the first book-length study of astronomy in Hardy's writing, historian of science and literary scholar Pamela Gossin brings the analytical tools of both disciplines to bear as she offers unexpected and sophisticated readings of seven novels that enrich Darwinian and feminist perspectives on his work, extend formalist evaluations of his achievement as a writer, and provide fresh interpretations of enigmatic passages and scenes. In an elegantly crafted introduction, Gossin draws together the shared critical values and methods of literary studies and the history of science to articulate a hybrid model of scholarly interpretation and analysis that promotes cross-disciplinary compassion and understanding within the current contention of the science/culture wars. She then situates Hardy's own deeply interdisciplinary knowledge of astronomy and cosmology within both literary and scientific traditions, from the ancient world through the Victorian era. Gossin offers insightful new assessments of A Pair of Blue Eyes, Far from the Madding Crowd, The Return of the Native, Two on a Tower, The Woodlanders, Tess of the D'Urbervilles, and Jude the Obscure, arguing that Hardy's personal synthesis of ancient and modern astronomy with mythopoetic and scientific cosmologies enabled him to write as a literary cosmologist for the post-Darwinian world. The profound new myths that comprise Hardy's novel universe can be read as a sustained set of literary thought-experiments by which he critiques the possibilities, limitations, and dangers of living out the storylines that such imaginative cosmologies project for his time - and ours.
