The course offers a sampling of some of the most influential European and American novels written between the mid-19th century and the Second World War. Lectures will focus on how these novels, in both form and content, are responding to widespread social transformations that affected all domains of life, public and private, from the dynamics of nationalism and empire to norms of sexuality and gender identity.
