ENGL 21903 - The Victorian Novel

Institution:

University of Chicago

Subject:

Description:

This is a course that considers the Victorian novel within the broader history and theory of the novel form, its function within Victorian society, and its dialogue with other forms of cultural representation during the period. We read novels or novellas by Dickens, Gaskell, Bronte, Eliot, Trollope, and Hardy, and, at the end of the quarter, consider the continuing impact of the Victorian multiplot novel on contemporary writing. Along with the novels, we read secondary scholarship on the novel, as well as contemporary primary materials that join the discussions expressed in the novels themselves. E. Hadley. Autumn.
