Sobre IBD

Romance and Reality: Essays and Studies is a collection of literary essays and studies written by Holbrook Jackson, an English writer and editor, and first published in 1911. The book explores the themes of romance and reality in literature, examining the tension between these two concepts and how they are represented in various works of fiction. The essays cover a wide range of topics, including the nature of romance, the role of imagination in literature, the influence of realism on fiction, and the relationship between literature and society. Jackson draws on examples from a diverse range of authors, including Shakespeare, Dickens, Tolstoy, and Dostoevsky, to illustrate his arguments and provide a comprehensive overview of the literary landscape of his time. Throughout the book, Jackson argues that while romance and reality may seem like opposing forces, they are in fact complementary and necessary for a complete understanding of literature. He also explores the ways in which literature can reflect and shape social attitudes and beliefs, and how the study of literature can help us better understand ourselves and the world around us. Overall, Romance and Reality: Essays and Studies is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of the role of literature in our lives, and an essential read for anyone interested in the intersection of art and society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
