Covering a wide range of writers – from Sidney, Shakespeare, Cervantes to Swift, Smollett and Bulwer-Lytton – Dickens’s novels reveal a multi-layered cosmos and supply their readers with richly woven nets of intertextuality.Close reading.Intertextuality Hg.Lennartz/Kochvictorian ageIntertextualitätLiteratursoziologieLiteraturKinderliteraturDickensCharlesShakespeareWilliamvictorian ageIntertextualitätLiteratursoziologieLiteraturKinderliteraturDickensCharlesShakespeareWilliam823.8Korte BarbaraProf. Dr.ctbOrestano FrancescaProf.ctbVita PaulDr.ctbMorris Paul DProf.ctbMüller Wolfgang GProf. Dr.ctbLetissier GeorgesProf.ctbZirker AngelikaDr.ctbVila Cabanes Maria IsabelctbChialant Maria TeresaProf. Dr.ctbHollington MichaelProf.ctbTomaiuolo SaverioctbVanfasse NathalieProf.ctbLennartz NorbertProf. Dr.edtKoch DieteredtMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910482022003321Texts, contexts and intertextuality2003813UNINA
