The Main Thing in Literary History: Key Works, Themes, Techniques, and Genres
19.99 €
This book is a ground-breaking introduction to literary history and an introduction to the finest works of fiction produced over the last 500 years. It explores 67 key works, from Alice in Wonderland to Crime and Punishment. And it does so through short stories that give a glimpse of great prose. Author Henry Russell takes the reader on a fast-paced tour of literary history and the history of the novel. And also analyzes how the basics of novels are arranged, how they work, what techniques, themes, and genre elements they use. The book will be an invaluable companion, an insightful guide to what and how to read, and a fresh look at the novel as a silent, invisible component of our connection to ourselves and the world.
