Elizabeth R. Napier argues that despite an increasing emphasis on the need to present ideas in corporeal terms, early fiction writers continued to register spiritual and moral reservations about the centrality of the body to human and imaginative experience.Drawing on six works of early English fiction - Daniel Defoe's Robinson Crusoe, Jonathan Swift's Gulliver's Travels, Samuel Richardson's Clarissa, Henry Fielding's Tom Jones, Elizabeth Inchbald's A Simple Story, and Mary Shelley's Frankenstein - Napier examines how authors grappled with technical and philosophical issues of the body, questioning its capacity for moral action, its relationship to individual freedom and dignity, and its role in the creation of art. Falling into Matter charts the course of the early novel as its authors engaged formally, stylistically, and thematically with the increasingly insistent role of the body in the new genre. 606 $aEnglish fiction$y18th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aHuman body in literature 606 $aMind and body in literature 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aEnglish fiction$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aHuman body in literature. 615 0$aMind and body in literature. 676 $a823/.5093561 700 $aNapier$b Elizabeth R.$f1950-$0169009 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910452144503321 996 $aFalling into matter$91980884 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03340nam 2200721Ia 450 001 9910779111403321 005 20230802005355.0 010 $a0-8262-7275-4 035 $a(CKB)2550000000105269 035 $a(EBL)3440801 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000737052 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11427193 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000737052 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10783868 035 $a(PQKB)10906646 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3440801 035 $a(OCoLC)868218145 035 $a(MdBmJHUP)muse26893 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL3440801 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10580575 035 $a(EXLCZ)992550000000105269 100 $a20111130d2012 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aDevotion to the adopted country$b[electronic resource] $eU.S. immigrant volunteers in the Mexican War /$fTyler V.
