A History of English Prose Fiction: From Sir Thomas Malory to George Eliot is a book written by Bayard Tuckerman and originally published in 1882. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the development of English prose fiction from its earliest origins to the Victorian era. Tuckerman begins by examining the work of Sir Thomas Malory, who is considered by many to be the father of English prose fiction. He then moves on to discuss the various literary movements and genres that emerged over the centuries, including the Gothic novel, the novel of manners, and the historical novel. Throughout the book, Tuckerman provides detailed analyses of the most important works of English prose fiction, including those by Jane Austen, Charles Dickens, and George Eliot. He also explores the social and cultural contexts in which these works were written, and discusses the ways in which they reflected and influenced the society of their time. Overall, A History of English Prose Fiction is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the development of English literature, and provides a fascinating look at the evolution of one of the most important genres in the English language.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
