内容説明

"Alexander Welsh has a personal voice, amused, witty, ironic, and proselytizing. He wears learning lightly and ranged widely over genres and disciplines, pleasing the cultural generalist as well as the nostalgic individualist."--Times Literary Supplement."[Welsh's] work on narrative is consistently... among the most theoretically original, daringly interdisciplinary, and substantively important that we have."--Modern Philology."A book this intelligent with this large a thesis and range of interests... naturally leaves one wishing for more."--Nineteenth-Century Literature

内容説明

This text argues that the effort to make the facts of a situation speak for themselves was the single most prominent form of narrative in the late 18th and 19th centuries. Drawing on English literary texts and criticism, the history of common law and natural religion, it characterizes the narrative form of "strong representation" - the endeavour to use circumstantial evidence to tell of things not seen.
