Combining the strengths of world-literary and world-systems analyses with a cultural materialist approach, the study offers unparalleled coverage of global links in Hardy’s fiction, engaging, in addition, with a range of dissenting responses – at both formal and thematic registers – to the British world-system’s exploitative structures. Hardy’s prose outputs reveal that the empire, contrary to popular critical assumptions in postcolonial studies, did not harmonise the classes, genders or regions into a shared national imperial identity, culture or destiny. A major component of the study additionally includes comparative readings of the ‘modern‘ world-system and imperial sociality in writings by Joseph Conrad, H. Rider Haggard, Elizabeth Gaskell, Rudyard Kipling, David Livingstone, and in Chartist poetry. The book will be an invaluable resource to teachers, students and enthusiasts working in the field of world literature, and in Victorian, postcolonial and settler colonial studies.. | 出版日期 | Book 2025 | 关键词 | Literature and Postcolonial Studies; Literature and Class; Victorian Literature; Novel; Short Story; Capi | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-69453-0 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-031-69455-4 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-031-69453-0Series ISSN 2634-6095 Series E-ISSN 2634-6109 | issn_series | 2634-6095 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
