ENGL 30453 - The Victorian Novel

Prerequisites: ENGL 10803 or 10833, ENGL 20803 or 20833, and at least one 10000- or 20000-level ENGL course. This course examines the genre of the Victorian novel, asking why it emerges in this period to challenge the preeminence of poetry, why realism becomes its dominant style, and how particular novelists respond to the substantial changes occurring in British society, including industrialization, political reform, and changing relations between the sexes and classes.
