In "The Realistic Imagination," George Levine argues that the
Victorian realists and the later modernists were in fact doing
similar things in their fiction: they were trying to use language
to get beyond language. Levine sees the history of the nineteenth-
and early twentieth-century novel as a continuing process in which
each generation of writers struggled to escape the grip of
convention and attempted to create new language to express their
particular sense of reality. As these attempts hardened into new
conventions, they generated new attempts to break free.
