Abstract:
Dystopian literature occupies a central place in the English literary landscape of the 20th century. This article examines this novelistic genre in order to identify its major features, specific orientation and various nuances. It is based on a corpus of 4 novels: Nineteen Eighty-Four by George Orwell, Brave New World by Aldous Huxley, A Clockwork Orange by Anthony Burgess and Fahrenheit 451 by the American writer Ray Bradbury. An examination of these novels, a fairly representative sample of 20th century English and Western dystopian literature, leads to the following two broad conclusions: T

Abstract: This essay rethinks the idea of the Victorian novel, arguing that this category and its conventional definition—realist, English, canonical—have obscured key aspects of novel history. Drawing on early twentieth-century surveys and criticism, I track how the "Victorian novel" emerged and was consolidated in critical history as a largely twentieth-century artifact. Using Priya Joshi's In Another Country (2002), I argue that the global book historical record contains evidence that novel theory has not yet incorporated: namely, realism's position as only one of many major novel genres in

Abstract:
This thesis reads the twentieth-century novel in light of its engagement with multilingualism. It treats the multilingual as a recurring formal preoccupation for writers working predominantly in English, but also as an emergent historical problematic through which they confront the linguistic and political inheritances of empire. The project thus understands European modernism as emerging from empire, and reads its formal innovations as engagements with the histories and quotidian realities of language use in the empire and in the metropolis. In addition to arguing for a rooting of modernism i

Abstract:
In my dissertation, "Narrative Representations (of Time) in the 20th Century Novel" I examine the way in which depictions of time intersect with narrative representation in the modern and postmodern novel. I specifically focus on the use of parentheses as a way to capture differing types of chronology in narrative. The parenthesis, in a purely visual sense, physically disrupts the act of reading by creating a type of barrier around one text, separating it from the main narrative. I argue that it is with this disruption that 20th century authors were able to experiment with depictions of time a

This thesis centres on the contemporary Danish novel as a conduit for national imagining. Chapter one begins with a discussion of Benedict Anderson's account of the ability of novels to facilitate an imagining of the national community in time and space. Critical responses to Anderson's hypothesis are then situated in the context of late twentieth-century debates on the 'postnational' and 'posthistorical'. Recent Danish historiography attempts to negotiate national histories that recognise not only the contingency of established historical accounts but also their narrative nature, employing te

This dissertation examines selected mid-Twentieth Century novels by four American writers (Carson McCullers, James Baldwin, William Styron, and Vladimir Nabokov) in order to offer a reappraisal of a difficult and often overlooked moment in the history of American fiction. Specifically, it considers how writers with liberal tendencies respond to the political inhibitions of a culture increasingly dominated by the consensus discourse of the Cold War. Rather than giving over to cynicism by adopting strictly apolitical themes, these writers demonstrate a commitment to liberal society through the v
