Description du livre Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. A footprint materializes mysteriously on a deserted shore; a giant helmet falls from the sky; a traveler awakens to find his horse dangling from a church steeple. Eighteenth-century fiction brims with moments such as these, in which the prosaic rubs up against the marvelous. While it is a truism that the period's literature is distinguished by its realism and air of probability, Eighteenth-Century Fiction and the Reinvention of Wonder argues that wonder isintegral to--rather than antithetical toDLthe developing techniques of novelistic fiction. Positioning its reader on the cusp between recognition and estrangement, between faith and doubt, modern fiction hingesupon wonder. Eighteenth-Century Fiction and the Reinvention of Wonder unfolds its new account of fiction's rise through surprising readings of classic early novels--from Daniel Defoe's Robinson Crusoe to Jane Austen's Northanger AbbeyDLand brings to attention lesser-known works, most notably Rudolf Raspe's Baron Munchausen's Narrative of His Marvellous Travels. In this bold new account, the eighteenth century bears witness not to theworld's disenchantment but rather to wonder's relocation from the supernatural realm to the empirical world, providing a reevaluation not only of how we look back at the Enlightenment, but also of how we read today. Eighteenth-Century Fiction and the Reinvention of Wonder examines the place of wonder in eighteenth-century fiction, arguing that wonder was, in fact, integral to--rather than antithetical to--the developing techniques of novelistic fiction.
