Realist Fiction and the Strolling Spectator (Routledge Revivals)

By John Rignall

Book Overview

The classic realist text has long been derided by post-structuralist critics as an unsophisticated and reactionary form. In this study, first published 1992, John Rignall makes a powerful case for the rehabilitation of realism as a self-aware and reflexive genre.A significant contribution to the field, this title will be of particular view to students of realism, literary theory, and comparative literature.
