Realism is an essential concept in literary studies, yet for a
variety of reasons it has not received the attention and clarity it
deserves, often being dismissed as "too slippery" to be of use.
This accessible study remedies that failing for students and
scholars of English Literature and Literary Theory alike, plainly
setting out what realism is, the issues surrounding it, and its
role in other major literary modes such as modernism and
postmodernism. "Beginning Realism" gives detailed coverage of the
nineteenth--century realist novel through its focus on novels by
Gaskell, Eliot, Trollope, Dickens, Mrs Oliphant, Thackeray and
Zola. As well as discussing "the novel," the book also includes
chapters on the use of realism in drama and poetry and a chapter on
'the language of realism', another aspect often overlooked in
analysis of the concept.
