Thomas Hardy's Short Stories : New Perspectives Paperback / softback
Edited by Juliette (Ohio Dominican University) Berning Schaefer, Siobhan (Winthrop University, USA) Craft Brownson
Part of the The Nineteenth Century Series series
Paperback / softback
Description
Thomas Hardy penned nearly fifty short stories, but in spite of this impressive number, his contributions to the genre have been relatively understudied.
Bringing together an international group of scholars, this is the first edited collection devoted solely to Hardy's works of short fiction.
The contributors take up topics related to their publication in periodicals, gender and community relationships, and narrative techniques.
Taken together, the essays show that Hardy's short stories are important, not only for what they tell us about Hardy as a writer who straddles the divide between the traditionalist and the modernist, but also for how they reflect and inform the period in which he wrote.
