Through these developments, which the authors term the textual turn, this study examines the textual condition of nineteenth-century literature. The authors explore works by Dickens, Wilde, Hardy, Yeats, Swinburne, FitzGerald, Pater, Arnold, Pinero and Shaw, connecting questions about what a work textually is with questions about why we read it and how we value it. The study asks whether the textual turn places us in a stronger position to analyze the value of a nineteenth-century text-not for readers of the nineteenth century, but of the twenty-first. The authors argue that this issue of value is central to their discipline.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51931274969376,"sku":"NEW0415806127","price":84.68,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/the-textual-condition-of-nineteenth-century-literature-routledge-studies-in-nineteenth-century-literature-0415806127","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
