About This Book

A series of critical essays that surveys contemporary novelists by grouping them into categories—rustic, worldly, philosophical, naturalist, impressionist, symbolist—and examines the currents of realism and idealism. It traces the evolution of realist writing through naturalism to impressionism and symbolism, offers close readings of representative authors and debates over method, language, and the role of the writer, contrasts sociological and aesthetic approaches to fiction, and reflects on the limits of literary systems while guiding readers in classifying new novels by style and tone.
