How Novels Think

How Novels Think
By:"Nancy Armstrong"
Published on 2006-03-07 by Columbia University Press

During the eighteenth century, novels by Daniel Defoe, Samuel Richardson, and Jane Austen offered their readers unforgettable, one-of-a-kind protagonists who appeared to overcome the limits of their social positions. This kind of individual did not reflect the authors and readers but endowed both with distinctively modern identities. In the decades following the revolutions in British North America and in France, novels began to question the fantasy of a self-made individual who could not rest until he or she arrived at a better social position. By the early nineteenth century, individualism had consequently become a problem in its own right. Instead of such plucky protagonists as Defoe's Robinson Crusoe and Moll Flanders, Richardson's Pamela Andrews, and Austen's Elizabeth Bennet, we find novels by Sir Walter Scott and Mary Shelley repackaging individualism in monstrous forms that threaten British society with collapse. Victorian novels by Emily Bronte, Charles Dickens, George Eliot, and Thomas Hardy assumed that every man harbors an inner savage, just as every woman harbors an inner whore. The trick in becoming an individual was to transform competitive instinct and seductive power into acceptable forms of masculinity and femininity. The high mortality rate of Victorian heroines testifies to the difficulty of negotiating the passage from savage to civilized. While a novel like The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde gives up on the effort to contain these contradictory aspects of individualism within one body, Dracula carries the process of disintegration one step further by pitting the modern individual against a species capable of taking over individual desire itself.

Rackham's Fairy Tale Illustrations

Rackham's Fairy Tale Illustrations
By:"Arthur Rackham","Jeff A. Menges"
Published on 2002 by Courier Corporation

One of the most renowned and best-loved illustrators of his day, English artist Arthur Rackham (1867–1939) brought countless stories and fairy tales to life though his vivid imagination and eye for telling details. Combining a sensitive use of line and subdued watercolors, he skillfully depicted forests of startling trees with claw-like roots, wholesome fairy maidens, monsters, and demons, and backgrounds filled with obscure figures. His inspired illustrations for the fairy tales of the Brothers Grimm (1900) brought him his first great success, with a long and distinguished career to follow. This collection of 55 full-color plates, reproduced from rare early editions, contains a rich selection of Rackham's best fairy tale images: a giant terrorizing the inhabitants of an isolated village in English Fairy Tales, a wicked witch greeting two lost children on her doorstep in Hansel and Gretel, a young maiden beset by snarling wolves in Irish Fairy Tales, and many more, including illustrations from Snowdrop and Other Tales, Little Brother and Little Sister, and The Allies' Fairy Book.
