Because this 'story' appeared, like so many nineteenth-century novels, in a series of installments in periodicals and reviews, it gained an appeal similar to that of fiction. Tracing the Connected Narrative examines written representations of nineteenth-century British expeditions to the Canadian Arctic. It places Arctic narratives in the broader context of the print culture of their time, especially periodical literature, which played an important role in shaping the public's understanding of Arctic exploration.Janice Cavell uncovers similarities between the presentation of exploration reports in periodicals and the serialized fiction that, she argues, predisposed readers to take an interest in the prolonged quest for the Northwest Passage. Cavell examines the same parallel in relation to the famous disappearance and subsequent search for the Franklin expedition. After the fate of Sir John Franklin had finally been revealed, the Illustrated London News printed a list of earlier articles on the missing expedition, suggesting that the public might wish to re-read them in order to 'trace the connected narrative' of this chapter in the Arctic story. Through extensive research and reference to new archival material, Cavell undertakes this task and, in the process, recaptures and examines the experience of nineteenth-century readers. 410 0$aStudies in book and print culture 606 $aLITERARY CRITICISM / European / English, Irish, Scottish, Welsh$2bisacsh 607 $aArctic regions$xDiscovery and exploration$xBritish$xHistory$vSources 608 $aElectronic books. 615 7$aLITERARY CRITICISM / European / English, Irish, Scottish, Welsh. 676 $a910.9163/27 700 $aCavell$b Janice$0903212 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910456776303321 996 $aTracing the connected narrative$92195664 997 $aUNINA
