S/LI/142. Is Rasselas an anti-novel, and, if so, written to what ends? Does the work belong to some genre other than the novel?
- WORDS:
- 2900
- DATE:
- 2006
- PRICE:
- 29.99 GBP
The novel has been defined as an extended fictional prose narrative, by which definition 'Rasselas' may be considered a novel. Nonetheless, the moral exemplars in 'Rasselas' and its didactic tone, align the work with Johnson's own views that fiction should have a moral purpose(as Johnson argued in his essay on fiction in the 'Rambler'). Thus 'Rasselas' may be considered as writing against the pulp fiction of its day, but it is by no means an anti-novel.
KEYWORDS: Johnson, Rasselas, Novel, Anti-Novel, Moral didacticism, Emergence of the novel,
S/LI/103. How do Swift?s urban pastoral or georgic poems work? How is pastoral imagery used in an urban environment? Are the poems satirical, and against whom or what is the satire directed?
- WORDS:
- 2700
- DATE:
- 2005
- PRICE:
- 29.99 GBP
The essay analyses Swift's 'A Description of Morning' and 'A Description of a City Shower'. It shows how both poems parody the style of Virgil's rural poetry, and how they parody the adoption of this classical style in the early eighteenth-century writings of Pope and others(which typically eulogised urban prosperity and rural harmony.) Such valorisation of national wealth and pride is contradicted in the satirical poems of Duck, Crabbe, and Gay and, perhaps most emphatically and excrementally, in the poems of Swift.
KEYWORDS: li, swift, urban, pastoral, georgic, poems, work, pastoral, imagery, urban, environment, poems, satirical, whom, satire, directed,
