Originalbroschur. Zustand: Sehr gut. 181 S. Ein gutes und sauberes Exemplar. - Inhalt: Introduction -- 'Life offers- to deny!' -- Far from the Madding Crowd -- The Return of the Native -- The Mayor of Casterbridge -- The Woodlanders -- Tess of the d'Urbervilles -- Jude the Obscure -- A Pair of Blue Eyes, The Trumpet-Major and the Minor Fiction -- The Poems. - This study of Thomas Hardy provides a substantial introduction to his six major novels and his poems. It deals more briefly with the minor fiction. Hardy now seems a more important novelist and poet than at any previous time. This importance is only partly due to his capabilities as a social historian or provincial chronicler. Far more important than these is his faithful exploration of the daily trials and tragedies of men and women as feeling beings. Man and woman in love, man and woman 'up against it', are his theme. Mr Butler's study of his work emphasizes this central aspect of Hardy's fiction and poetry. His tendency to universalize his tragic material, in which he is akin to Shakespeare, is seen as his abiding achievement. Detailed analyses are made of some crucial passages in the major novels and a serious attempt is made to counter the proposition that Hardy 'wrote badly'. Some of his quirkier writing is looked at honestly, but the conclusion is that Hardy was a novelist who, above all, knew what he was doing and did it well. (Verlagstext).
