In this Companion, leading scholars and critics address the work of
the most celebrated and enduring novelists from the British Isles
(excluding living writers): among them Defoe, Richardson, Sterne,
Austen, Dickens, the Brontes, George Eliot, Hardy, James, Lawrence,
Joyce, and Woolf. The significance of each writer in their own time
is explained, the relation of their work to that of predecessors
and successors explored, and their most important novels analysed.
These essays do not aim to create a canon in a prescriptive way,
but taken together they describe a strong developing tradition of
the writing of fictional prose over the past 300 years. This volume
is a helpful guide for those studying and teaching the novel, and
will allow readers to consider the significance of less familiar
authors such as Henry Green and Elizabeth Bowen alongside those
with a more established place in literary history.
