Development of Prose in the 19th Century Novel
A critical survey of English prose evolution through the 19th century. It traces the shift from historical writing to fiction, the rise of the novel, and the struggle between prose and rhetoric. It notes Henry James, Walter Pater, and Dickens, and discusses anthologies that treat novelists with proper regard while lamenting the decline of essays and history.
