This book is about the manifestations and explorations of the
heroic in narrative literature since around 1800. It traces the
most important stages of this representation but also includes
strands that have been marginalised or silenced in a dominant
masculine and higher-class framework - the studies include
explorations of female versions of the heroic, and they consider
working-class and ethnic perspectives. The chapters in this volume
each focus on a prominent conjuncture of texts, histories and
approaches to the heroic. Taken together, they present an overview
of the 'literary heroic' in fiction since the late eighteenth
century.
