The English Novel In The Time Of Shakespeare by J.J. Jusserand is a comprehensive study of the development of the novel in England during the 16th and 17th centuries. The book provides a detailed examination of the literary landscape of the time, including the emergence of the novel as a distinct genre, and the various forms it took, such as romances, picaresque tales, and pastoral novels.Jusserand traces the evolution of the novel from its roots in medieval literature, through the influence of the Italian novella and French romance, to the emergence of the English novel as a unique form. He explores the works of major authors of the time, such as Thomas Malory, John Lyly, Philip Sidney, and William Shakespeare, and their contributions to the development of the novel.The book also considers the social and cultural context in which the novel emerged, including the rise of literacy, the growth of the printing industry, and the changing attitudes towards reading and literature. Jusserand examines the role of women in the development of the novel, as both writers and readers, and the impact of the Protestant Reformation on the literary landscape.Overall, The English Novel In The Time Of Shakespeare provides a rich and detailed portrait of the literary culture of early modern England, and offers valuable insights into the origins and development of the novel as a genre.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
