Reading Constellations uses Walter Benjamin's philosophy of history
to examine four canonical Victorian novels by Dickens, Hardy, and
James. Throughout its chapters, the monograph deploys the
dialectical notion of the "constellation" to read moments in novels
in which past and present interpenetrate and the ways these writers
open out the representation of the city to new modes of
articulation and-through narrative perception- the reader's
perception of the phenomena of the city, its place as the exemplar
of modernity, and the ways in which it determines subjectivity.
