Cambridge University Press Headlong Hall
Book SynopsisThomas Love Peacock (1785?1866) is one of the most distinctive prose satirists of the Romantic period. The Cambridge Edition of the Novels of Thomas Love Peacock offers the first complete text of these works to appear for more than half a century. Headlong Hall (1816), Peacock''s earliest work of dialogic and satirical fiction, was the most popular of his tales during his lifetime and considered his signature novel. An episodic plot and a country house setting provide the framework for a sparkling intellectual comedy that embraces music, gastronomy, philosophy, politics, craniology, painting, and landscape gardening. This edition supplies an authoritative text and a comprehensive introduction tracing the genesis, composition, publication, reception, and revision of the novel. Extensive explanatory notes throw light on the Welsh backdrop to the fiction as well as on the literary, political, social, and intellectual contexts of Peacock''s innovative topical satire.Trade Review'With their meticulous notes, rigorous documentation of textual variants and generous contextual appendices (including two unperformed, unpublished farces that Peacock drew on for Headlong Hall), these fine new volumes in the Cambridge Edition of the Novels of Thomas Love Peacock get us closer than ever to the nuances of his satire.' Thomas Keymer, the Times Literary SupplementTable of ContentsGeneral Editor's preface; Chronology; Introduction; Headlong Hall; Appendix A. Peacock's Preface of 1837; Appendix B. The Dilettanti (1812–13); Appendix C. The Three Doctors (1812–13); Appendix D. A Revised Text of the Headlong 'Chorus'; Note on the text; Emendations and variants; Ambiguous line-end hyphenations; Explanatory notes; Select bibliography.

Cambridge University Press Thomas Hardy and Animals
Book SynopsisThomas Hardy and Animals examines the human and nonhuman animals who walk and crawl and fly across and around the pages of Hardy''s novels. Animals abound in his writings, yet little scholarly attention has been paid to them so far. This book fills this gap in Hardy studies, bringing an important author within range of a new and developing area of critical inquiry. It considers the way Hardy''s representations of animals challenged ideas of human-animal boundaries debated by the Victorian scientific and philosophical communities. In moments of encounter between humans and animals, Hardy questions boundaries based on ideas of moral sense or moral agency, language and reason, the possession of a face, and the capacity to suffer and perceive pain. Through an emphasis on embodied encounters, his writings call for an extension of empathy to others, human or nonhuman. In this accessible book Anna West offers a new approach to Hardy criticism.Trade Review'… an important and welcome contribution to Hardy scholarship. … West's volume serves as a good beginning point … on this compelling and complex subject. … Summing Up: Recommended. Lower-division undergraduates through faculty.' R. D. Morrison, CHOICE'Thomas Hardy and Animals is an outstanding piece of work that makes an important contribution to Hardy studies and to scholarship on animals in the Victorian period.' Jennifer McDonell, Victorian Studies'… West's excellent study provides a very welcome introduction to the 'creatures' that play so notable a part in Hardy's oeuvre.' Adrian Tait, The British Society for Literature and ScienceTable of ContentsIntroduction: Hardy's 'shifted [...] centre of altruism': an ethics of encounter and empathy; 1. What does it mean to be a creature?; 2. 'The only things we believe in are the sheep and the dogs'; 3. 'Artful' creatures, part one: animal language; 4. 'Artful' creatures, part two: can a snake have a face?; 5. 'Artful' creatures, part three: 'pre-posthumanist' Hardy; 6. Useful creatures: rethinking Hardy's humanitarianism.
