Novel Beginnings departs from the traditional, narrow focus on the development of the realistic novel to emphasize the many kinds of experimentation that marked the genre in the eighteenth century before its conventions were firmly established in the nineteenth. Treating well-known works like Tom Jones and Tristram Shandy in conjunction with less familiar texts such as Sarah Fielding's The Cry (a kind of hybrid novel and play) and Jane Barker's A Patch-Work Screen for the Ladies (a novel of adventure replete with sentimental verse and numerous subnarratives), the book evokes the excitement of a multifaceted and unpredictable process of growth and change. Investigating fiction throughout the 1700's, Spacks delineates the individuality of specific texts while suggesting connections among novels. She sketches a wide range of forms and themes, including Providential narratives, psychological thrillers, romans à clef, sentimental parables, political allegories, Gothic romances, and many others. These multiple narrative experiments show the impossibility of thinking of eighteenth-century fiction simply as a precursor to the nineteenth-century novel, Spacks shows. Instead, the vast variety of engagements with the problems of creating fiction demonstrates that literary history-by no means inexorable-might have taken quite a different course. 410 0$aYale guides to English literature. 606 $aEnglish fiction$y18th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aExperimental fiction, English$xHistory and criticism 606 $aLiterary form$xHistory$y18th century 615 0$aEnglish fiction$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aExperimental fiction, English$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aLiterary form$xHistory 676 $a823/.509 700 $aSpacks$b Patricia Ann Meyer$0458628 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910955668003321 996 $aNovel beginnings$94364111 997 $aUNINA
