Asks questions about literature's relation to the principles of history. Taking up Adorno's assertion about the crisis of 20th-century art and its inability to represent historical events, Reilly searches for the articulation of this problem within the works of Hardy, Conrad and George Eliot.
In Shadowtime Jim Reilly explores how the great Victorian and Edwardian works of literature can be read in the light of current radical historiography, which foresees the extinction not just of art but of history itself. This is an outstanding combination of original readings and critical survey. Shadowtime is ideal material for anyone studying nineteenth-century realism, modernism and the history of aesthetics.
