Ann Gaylin argues that eavesdropping dramatizes a primal human urge to know and offers a paradigm of narrative transmission and reception of information among characters, narrators and readers. Gaylin sheds light on the social and psychological effects of the nineteenth-century rise of information technology and accelerated flow of information, as manifested in the anxieties about - and delight in - displays of private life and its secrets. Analysing eavesdropping in Austen, Balzac, Collins, Dickens and Proust, Gaylin demonstrates the flexibility of the scene to produce narrative complication or resolution; to foreground questions of gender and narrative agency; to place the debates of privacy and publicity within the literal and metaphoric spaces of the nineteenth-century novel. This 2003 study will be of interest to scholars of nineteenth-century English and European literature. 410 0$aCambridge studies in nineteenth-century literature and culture ;$v37. 606 $aEnglish fiction$y19th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aEavesdropping in literature 606 $aComparative literature$xEnglish and French 606 $aComparative literature$xFrench and English 606 $aFrench fiction$xHistory and criticism 615 0$aEnglish fiction$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aEavesdropping in literature. 615 0$aComparative literature$xEnglish and French. 615 0$aComparative literature$xFrench and English. 615 0$aFrench fiction$xHistory and criticism. 676 $a823/.809353 700 $aGaylin$b Ann Elizabeth$01043157 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910449747703321 996 $aEavesdropping in the novel from Austen to Proust$92467937 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02385oam 2200457zu 450 001 9910130558003321 005 20241212220410.0 010 $a9781457712524 010 $a1457712520 035 $a(CKB)3420000000000263 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000781274 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)12343793 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000781274 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10804368 035 $a(PQKB)10039221 035 $a(NjHacI)993420000000000263 035 $a(EXLCZ)993420000000000263 100 $a20160829d2011 uy 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$a2011 IEEE International Ultrasonics Symposium 210 31$a[Place of publication not identified]$cIEEE$d2011 215 $a1 online resource 300 $aBibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph 311 08$a9781457712531 311 08$a1457712539 327 $aThe impact of different estimator algorithms when obtaining effective diameter estimates from populations of scatterers of different sizes -- Attenuation estimation using a synthetic aperture focusing technique -- Enhancement of the inverse method enabling the material parameter identification for piezoceramics -- Novel limiter using biploar power transistors for high frequency ultrasonic transducer applications -- Continuous feed growth and characterization of PMN-PT single crystals -- Simulation of shadowing effects in ultrasound imaging from computed tomography images -- Suppression of transverse-mode spurious responses for zero temperature coefficient of frequency SAW resonator on a SiO2/Al/LiNbO3 structure -- A sonic screwdriver: Acoustic angular momentum transfer for ultrasonic manipulation -- Performance evaluation of an automatic controlled sonoporation therapy device -- Dependency of signal to noise ratio on transducer diameter and buffer diameter in guided wave time domain reflectometry -- The acoustic resonator combined with electrical discharges. 606 $aSurface waves (Oceanography)$vCongresses 606 $aUltrasonic waves$vCongresses 615 0$aSurface waves (Oceanography) 615 0$aUltrasonic waves 676 $a537.622 702 $aIEEE Staff 801 0$bPQKB 906 $aPROCEEDING 912 $a9910130558003321 996 $a2011 IEEE International Ultrasonics Symposium$92539560 997 $aUNINA
