First published in 1966, this book collects six essays which
discuss the experience of social change as it reveals itself in the
work of several nineteenth century novelists. In the novels
studied, and the discussion of fiction that follows, the authors
argue that all these novelists' attempts to confront social change
- to connect old with new, past with present and the attempted
inclusiveness of vision in a changing society - sooner or later
fail. The essays are polemic in arguing against the contemporary
critical consensus that this failure is a limitation of imaginative
intelligence rather than an endorsement of a receding past which
the process of change was charged with destroying.
