Errors and Reconciliations: Marriage in the Plays and Novels of Henry Fielding: Routledge Studies in Eighteenth-Century Literature

Autor Anaclara Castro-Santana
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 sep 2020
Henry Fielding is most well-known for his monumental novel Tom Jones. Though not necessarily common knowledge, Henry Fielding started his literary career as a dramatist and eventually transitioned to writing novels. Though vastly different in their approach and subject, there is a common thread in Fielding’s work that spanned his career: marriage. Errors and Reconciliations: Marriage in the Plays and Novels of Henry Fielding explores this theme, focusing on Fielding’s fascination with matrimony and the ever-present paradoxical nature of marriage in the first half of the eighteenth-century, as a state easily attained but nearly impossible to escape.

Recenzii

‘Castro’s book is an important one for scholars of the eighteenth century: by illuminating the centrality of the marriage plot, it offers fresh, cogent arguments about Fielding’s drama and the relationship between theatre and fiction in the period.’ Emma Major, Centre for Eighteenth-Century Studies, University of York
‘This is not only a book that reshapes our perceptions of Henry Fielding’s literary achievement. Anaclara Castra Santana reveals that the marriage plot is at the heart of the ethics and aesthetics of the most popular genres of the eighteenth century: the novel and the theatre ’ -- Ros Ballaster, Faculty of English, Mansfield College, University of Oxford
