内容説明

This is a group of essays which explore how dramatic impulses underlie Dickens' conception of himself and his art - as well as how they were transformed into the dynamic world of his fiction. The work also considers Dickens' relationship with women (actresses an his own characters) and the history of Victorian and modern theatre. Carol Hanbery MacKay is author of "Soliloquy in Nineteenth-Century Fiction".
