The British novel v-1

Аннотация

The Facts On File Companion to the British Novel is a comprehensive reference for students, instructors, and aficionados of the novel. Tracing the development in English of the genre, this two-volume companion considers everything from the British works of the late 1600s that prefigured the novel to British novels published through the end of the 20th century. The wide scope of the companion allows the inclusion of all major writers of the English, Welsh, Irish, and Scottish traditions, in addition to important writers from countries of the British Commonwealth, as well as many minor, or “second tier,” writers. Entries on all these writers’ most important and interesting works are also included.
