Since the sixteenth century, Western literature has produced
picaresque novels penned by authors across Europe, from Aleman,
Cervantes, Lesage and Defoe to Cela and Mann. Contemporary authors
of neopicaresque are renewing this traditional form to express
twenty-first-century concerns. Notwithstanding its major
contribution to literary history, as one of the founding forms of
the modern novel, the picaresque remains a controversial literary
category, and its definition is still much contested. The
Picaresque Novel in Western Literature examines the development of
the picaresque, chronologically and geographically, from its
origins in sixteenth-century Spain to the neopicaresque in Europe
and the United States.
