'Dickens and the Sentimental Tradition' is a timely study of the
'sentimental' in Dickens's novels, which places them in the context
of the tradition of Fielding, Richardson, Sterne, Goldsmith,
Sheridan and Lamb. This study re-evaluates Dickens's presentation
of emotion - first within the eighteenth-century tradition and then
within the dissimilar nineteenth-century tradition - as part of a
complex literary heritage that enables him to critique
nineteenth-century society. The book sheds light on the
construction of feelings and of the 'good heart', ideas which
resonate with current critical debates about literary 'affect'.
Sentimentalism, as the text demonstrates, is crucial to
understanding fully the achievement of Dickens and his
contemporaries.
