The texts we shall discuss in this course range from a variety of statements by 19th century observers of the social changes to a selection of “industrial novels”. In particular, we shall discuss the literary response to the emergence of new classes due to the Industrial Revolution. These are: Charles Dickens, Hard Times. (1854) Elizabeth Gaskell, Mary Barton. (1848) Elizabeth Gaskell, North and South. (1855) |
