| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | First given as a series of lectures at Cambridge University, aspects of the Novel is Foster's analysis of this great literary form. Here he rejects the 'historical' view of criticism- that demon of chronology- that considers writers in terms of the period in which they wrote and instead asks us to imagine the great novelist at work together in a circular room. He discusses aspects of people, plot, fantasy and rhythm, making illuminating comparisons between such novelists as Proust and James, Dickens and Thackeray, Eliot and Dotstoyevsky-the features shared by their books and the ways in which they differ. Written in a wonderfully engaging and conversational manner, this penetrating work of criticism is full of Foster's habitual irreverence, wit and wisdom.<br/> In his new introduction, Frank Kermode discusses the ways in which Foster's perspective as a novelist inspired his lectures. This edition also includes the original introduction by Oliver Stallybrass, a chronology, further reading and appendices. |
