- This seminar considers canonical theories of the novel, ranging from Luckás and Bakhtin through Vermeule and Moretti, alongside major novels from the eighteenth- and nineteenth- centuries, ranging from Behn and Richardson through Bronte and Hardy. We will examine the early conditions of the emergence of the genre, the formal developments it undergoes, its engagement with a plurality of forms - history, travel, letters, romance, the fantastic -- and the way practitioners and critics evaluate its social purposes.
