Monstrous Kinships: Realism and Attachment Theory in the Novels of
Mary Shelley, Herman Melville, Thomas Hardy, Stephen Crane,
Theodore Dreiser, and Vladimir Nabokov investigates the connection
between realist fiction of the nineteenth and early twentieth
centuries and the psychoanalytic approach of John Bowlby's
Attachment Theory. Attachment Theory arises from the guiding
principles of realism and the veratist's devotion to long-term,
direct observation of subject matter. Additionally, because
Attachment Theory originated in the field of child psychoanalysis,
this book highlights the detrimental effects of parental obsession
and abandonment, industrialism, poverty, alcoholism, religious
addiction, and physical, emotional, and sexual abuse on child
characters. The subject of Monstrous Kinships is timely, as
literary critics and theorists as well as creative writers continue
to expand their range of inquiry to include the child as primary
subject in various treatments of post-colonial and transnational
culture.
