Samenvatting
Originally published in 1954, this volume analyses the works of Thackeray, providing a detailed critical exposition which sheds light on his authorial approach. Taking as its point of departure Thackeray's singularity of vision, the text moves through the various formal techniques used in the novels before putting forward some more general conclusions regarding his philosophical position. A large number of quotations are used, including numerous long extracts, reflecting a firm basis in textual analysis. Illustrations and a chronological table of Thackeray's life are also present. This is a highly readable book that will be of value to anyone with an interest in nineteenth-century literature, satire, and the history of the novel.
