This book examines Thomas Hardy's representations of the road and
the ways the archaeological and historical record of roads inform
his work. Through an analysis of the uneven and often competing
road signs found within three of his major novels - The Return of
the Native, Tess of the D'Urbervilles, and Jude the Obscure - and
by mapping the road travels of his protagonists, this book argues
that the road as represented by Hardy provides a palimpsest that
critiques the Victorian construction of social and sexual
identities. Balancing modern exigencies with mythic possibilities,
Hardy's fictive roads exist as contested spaces that channel desire
for middle-class assimilation even as they provide the means both
to reinforce and to resist conformity to hegemonic authority.
