The author offers close readings of Thomas Hardy's poetry and
novels, regarding these as expressive forms of everyday and
professional acts of the imagination. Hardy is placed in the long
tradition of writers who subject is not art but imagination and
whose most interesting aesthetic introspection+as, like those of
Jane Austen and George Eliot, are oblique or sub-textual. So what
the reader follows here is Hardy's imagining of imagination in his
elegies and nature poems and in his major characters from Gabriel
Oak to Tess and Jude.The themes and forms examined by Barbara Hardy
include narrative, conversation, gossip, memory, gender, poetry of
place and imaginative thresholds. Altogether the study is a lucid
and accessible introduction, which locates Hardy's place in the
tradition of English literature.
