Omschrijving

In "The English Novel in the Time of Shakespeare," J. J. Jusserand meticulously examines the emerging narrative forms and cultural dynamics that defined English literature during the early 17th century. Characterized by his elegant prose and scholarly rigor, Jusserand explores the intersection of dramatic and novelistic traditions, highlighting the influence of contemporaneous playwrights and the socio-political milieu of the Elizabethan and Jacobean eras. Through an analytical lens, the author scrutinizes seminal works and their reflection of a society in flux, illustrating the preliminary steps toward the modern novel amidst intricate character development and thematic complexity. J. J. Jusserand was a prominent literary critic, historian, and diplomat, known for his deep engagement with both French and English literary traditions. His immersive studies of English literature and keen insights into cultural exchanges between France and England positioned him as an authoritative voice on the significance of the period. Jusserand's scholarly pursuits were likely informed by his own experiences of navigating different literary landscapes, enriching his examination of the novel in an age dominated by playwrights like Shakespeare himself. For readers eager to deepen their understanding of the evolution of English literature, Jusserand's work offers an invaluable perspective on the interplay between the burgeoning novel and established theatrical forms. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the foundations of narrative art, as it uncovers the profound historical and cultural narratives that have shaped modern storytelling.
