书目名称 | Dickens and Heredity | 副标题 | When Like Begets Lik | 编辑 | Goldie Morgentaler | 视频video | | 图书封面 |  | 描述 | Despite the modern obsession with genetics and reproductive technology, very little has been written about Dickens‘s fascination with heredity, nor the impact that this fascination had on his novels . Dickens and Heredity is an attempt to rectify that omission by describing the hereditary theories that were current in Dickens‘s time and how these are reflected in his fiction. The book also argues that Dickens jettisoned his earlier belief in the prescriptive and deterministic potential of heredity after Darwin published The Origin of the Species in 1859. | 出版日期 | Book 2000 | 关键词 | argue; Charles Darwin; Charles Dickens; fiction; individual; novel; time | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1057/9780230596320 | isbn_ebook | 978-0-230-59632-0 | copyright | Palgrave Macmillan, a division of Macmillan Publishers Limited 2000 |
