This collection covers the range of Thomas Hardy's works and their
social and intellectual contexts, providing a comprehensive
introduction to Hardy's life and times. Featuring short, lively
contributions from forty-three international scholars, the volume
explores the processes by which Hardy the man became Hardy the
published writer; the changing critical responses to his work; his
response to the social and political challenges of his time; his
engagement with contemporary intellectual debate; and his legacy in
the twentieth century and after. Emphasizing the subtle and ongoing
interaction between Hardy's life, his creative achievement, and the
unique historical moment, the collection also examines Hardy's
relationship to such issues as class, education, folklore,
archeology and anthropology, evolution, marriage and masculinity,
empire, and the arts. A valuable contextual reference for scholars
of Victorian and modernist literature, the collection will also
prove accessible for the general reader of Hardy.
