This work explores this crucial period in the development of the
English novel, integrating critical theory, historical background
and close reading. Divided into two major sections, the first shows
how historical and contextual material is essential for developing
powerful readings. Thus the first part challenges such New Critical
tenets as "exit author" and the "biographical fallacy" and
discusses how the author becomes a formal presence in the text.;The
second section is theoretical and speaks of the transformation in
the way that we read and think about authors, readers, characters
and form in the light of recent theory, offering an alternative to
the deconstructive and Marxist trends in literary studies.
