Reconsidering the eighteenth-century realist novel, twentieth-century modernism, and underappreciated topics on individualism and literature, this volume provocatively revises and enriches our understanding of individualism as the generative premise of modernity itself. 606 $aIndividualism in literature 606 $aIndividualism$xHistory 606 $aEnglish literature$xHistory and criticism 615 0$aIndividualism in literature. 615 0$aIndividualism$xHistory. 615 0$aEnglish literature$xHistory and criticism. 676 $a809/.93343 701 $aMeer$b Zubin$f1975-$01844379 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910971088203321 996 $aIndividualism$94426943 997 $aUNINA
