[edit] Description from course catalog
- This course introduces the nineteenth-century novel, with a special emphasis on how vehement emotions—such as grief, rage, fear and wonder—generate and organize these narratives. We will be looking at British novels of the “classic” period (arguably when the novel reached its peak as a form), in an attempt to generate a critical, formal, and theoretical reading of these texts and their affective structures. Through an intense study of these texts, we will attempt to discern a poetics of feeling underlying the Victorian novel. Nature of Text. British, 1700-1900.
