Abstract:
In England, realism was formed very quickly, because it appeared immediately after the Enlightenment, and its formation occurred almost simultaneously with the development of Romanticism, which did not hinder the success of the new literary movement. The peculiarity of English literature is that in it romanticism and realism coexisted and enriched each other. Examples include the works of two writers, Elizabeth Gaskell and Charlotte Bronte. However, the discovery and confirmation of realism in English literature is primarily associated with the legacy of Charles Dickens (1812-1870) and William

Abstract:
This article analyzes how the British writers Frances Trollope (1779–1863) and William Makepeace Thackeray (1811–1863) described the Belgian coastal resort Ostend in the 1830s and 1840s. A special focus is placed on both the British travelers passing through Ostend and the British resident communities at Ostend. The article will highlight how the assessments of Frances Trollope and William Makepeace Thackeray of Ostend as a coastal resort frequented by the British can be unpacked fruitfully within two overarching themes: the theme of “genteel poverty” and “respectability” on the one hand, and

Abstract:
Vanity Fair is a masterpiece by William Makepeace Thackeray (1811-1863), which is centered on the lives of two young women, Becky Sharp and Amelia Sedley, presenting the life of extravagance and rivalry of the aristocratic bourgeoisie in nineteenth-century England. In the novel, Thackeray ruthlessly exposes the shameless and degenerate nature of the feudal aristocracy and the hypocrisy of the bourgeoisie in their pursuit of fame and fortune. During the Victorian period, consumerism prevailed. The circulation of commodities was well developed, and people at that time indulged in the revelry of

Abstract:
The writings of William Thackeray (1811-1863) are dominated by his experience of the commodity form; his apprehension not only of objects and material reality, but also of his own literary productions emerges from economic experience. Working from Pierre Bourdieu's materialist analysis of spatial relationships, the following paper first examines the consequences of commodification on Thackeray's representation of space and material culture, and then briefly analyzes that representation as a product of Thackeray's habitus, understood as the dialectical product of his position within a series of

El objetivo principal de este tesis doctoral es el poner de relieve le evolución que se de en W. M. Thackeray en cuanto al tratamiento de la mujer y del matrimonio en sus noveles, evolución que nos lleva a pensar en un Thackeray progresista y reformista respecto de la sociedad de su tiempo. Los temas "mujer" y "matrimonio" han sido estudiados conjuntamente por considerar que en la obra de Thackeray el matrimonio aparece como la vertiente social de la mujer (el papel da ésta en la sociedad que Thackeray describe es el matrimonio), constituyendo ambos temes de este modo un todo inseparable en la

Abstract:
This dissertation makes two arguments: First, it elaborates a depressive genealogy of the Victorian novel that asserts a category of realism rooted in affect rather than period or place. Second, it argues for a critical strategy called "depressive reading" that has unique purchase on this literary history. Drawing on Melanie Klein's "depressive position," the project asserts an alternative to novel theories that are rooted in sympathy and desire. By being attentive to mood and critical disposition, depressive reading homes in on the barely-contained negativities of realism. Through readings of

This dissertation considers the role of affective management in realist aesthetics and British imperial culture. Drawing on formalist analyses of English novels, nineteenth-century theories of emotion, and postcolonial accounts that identify the colonizer’s affective desensitization as the ground from which ongoing violence can be perpetrated, this study explores how domestic English novels developed new techniques for deflating the heightened feelings surrounding empire and distant intimacy.

Abstract:
Chapter two shows how the growth of Britain’s market economy created as many problems of status as it solved, first by surveying the recurrent financial crises that punctuated the late-Romantic through the mid-Victorian period. Against this cyclical pattern of boom and bust, it then matches William Makepeace Thackeray’s The History of Samuel Titmarsh and the Great Hoggarty Diamond (1841), Dickens’s Dombey and Son (1848), Charles Reade’s Hard Cash (1863), and Trollope’s The Way We Live Now (1875) with William North’s The City of the Jugglers (1851) to show the wariness with which middle-class writers approached Weber’s “‘naked’ money power” as a source of public authority. Ultimately, North proposes poetic genius, of the sort described in Shelley’s posthumous “Defence of Poetry” (1839), as a cure for money-grubbing and a warrant for social status, even as he worries, with good reason, that his novel will fail to attract enough readers to legitimize either his social analysis or his personal genius.
