Description

Literature in a Time of Migration offers a groundbreaking examination of nineteenth-century British fiction through the lens of global human mobility. This scholarly work explores the paradox at the heart of British literature during 1815-1876: whilst transnational migration reshaped the world on an unprecedented scale, British fiction appeared to retreat inward, crafting narratives of local places and stability. Published by Oxford University Press, this cloth-bound volume builds on contemporary critical perspectives about globalisation in literary studies to reveal how literary works from the end of the Napoleonic Wars onwards engaged with and responded to the era's profound movements of people. The book challenges traditional readings of Victorian literature, demonstrating how British fiction both reflected and negotiated the vast human displacements that defined the nineteenth century.

Key Features

Builds on contemporary critical frameworks of globalisation to reinterpret nineteenth-century literary works and their engagement with displacement.
