THE REINTERPRETJLTION OF VICTORIAN LITERATURE THE REINTERPRETATION OF VICTORIAN LITERATURE EDITED BY JOSEPH E. BAKER FOR THE VICTORIAN LITERATURE CROUP OF THE MODERN LANGUAGE ASSOCIATION OF AMERICA PRINCETON, NEW JERSEY PRINCETON UNIVERSITY PRESS 1950 COPYRIGHT, 1950, BY PRINCETON UNIVERSITY PRESS LONDON: GEOFFREY CUMBERLEGE, OXFORD UNIVERSITY PRESS PRINTED IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA BY PRINCETON UNIVERSITY PRESS AT PRINCETON, NEW JERSEY PREFACE THE Victorian Literature Group of the Modern Language Association of America, at the 1939 meeting in New Or- leans, agreed to put out this volume to further the reinter- pretation of a literature of great significance for us today. The writers of Victorian England first tried* to salvage humane culture for a new world of science, democracy, and industrialism. We owe to them and to Pre-Victorians like the prose Coleridge a revival of Christian thought, a new Classical renaissance (this time Greek rather than Latin), an unprecedented mastery of the facts about nature and man and, indeed, the very conception of "culture" that we take for granted in our education and in our social plan- ning. In that age, a consciousness that human life is subject to constant development, a sense of historicity, first spread throughout the general public, and literature for -The first time showed that intimate integration with its sociafback- ground which marks our modern culture. -

EUROPEAN ACADEMIC RESEARCH Vol. IV, Issue 4/ July 2016 Impact Factor: 3.4546 (UIF) ISSN 2286-4822 DRJI Value: 5.9 (B+) www.euacademic.org The Origin and Development of the Proletarian Novel JAVED AKHTER Department of English Literature University of Baluchistan, Quetta, Pakistan Abstract: This research paper tends to trace the origin and development of the mature proletarian revolutionary novel. The mature revolutionary proletarian novels will be discussed and highlighted in this study in terms of Marxist hermeneutics This new literary kind did not come into being prior to the imperialist era because the socio- economic requirements for this literary genre were non-existent and the proletarian movement did not enter into its decisive historical stage of development. This new genre of the novel appeared simultaneously in the works of Robert Tressell, Martin Anderson Nexo, Upton Sinclair and Maxim Gorky in the beginning of the twentieth century. In this era of imperialism, the proletarian novel came into existence, when the socio-historical ethos brought the proletarian movement into being as well as helped to organise and develop it on international level. At the end of this analytical and comparative study of them, the noticeable point is that the proletarian novels of that period share astonishing similarities with one another. Applying Marxist literary hermeneutics to the art of novel writing of the famous proletarian novelists, this research paper will try to introduce new portrait of the personages of the novels of these proletarian -

Progressive-Era Hygienic Ideology, Waste, and Upton Sinclair's the Jungle
Processes of Elimination: Progressive-Era Hygienic Ideology, Waste, and Upton Sinclair's The Jungle J. Michael Duvall Disappointed that The Jungle did not result in a ground-swell of socialist sentiment, Upton Sinclair famously evaluated his best-known novel as a kind of failure. "I aimed at the public's heart," he wrote, "and by accident hit them in the stomach."1 Yet no one could doubt that Sinclair aimed at the public's heart, given The Jungle's sentimentality, but the idea that he hit the public in the stomach by accident obviously overstates the case. More likely, Sinclair aimed at the public's stomach, but hoped that the blow would cause moral outrage and a lasting change in the public's heart. He was following a venerable recipe for fomenting moral judgment: begin with your basic jeremiad, ladle in liberal amounts of the filthy and the revolting, and stir.2 As William Ian Miller affirms in The Anatomy of Disgust, Sinclair's gambit is right on target. Disgust and moral judgment are nearly always wrapped up together, for "except for the highest-toned discourses of moral philosophers, moral judgment seems almost to demand the idiom of disgust. That makes me sick! What revolting behavior! You give me the creeps!'3 Miller's illustration of how disgust surfaces in expressions of moral judgment highlights that disgust is encoded bodily. This is evidenced in the adjectives "sick" and "revolting" and the noun "the creeps," all three quite visceral in their tone and implications. Invoking the disgusting is but one way in which The Jungle enlists the body, in this case, the bodies of readers themselves. -

The Art of Noise: Literature and Disturbance 1900-1940
THE ART OF NOISE: LITERATURE AND DISTURBANCE 1900-1940 by Nora Elisabeth Lambrecht A dissertation submitted to Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Baltimore, Maryland October, 2017 © 2017 Nora Elisabeth Lambrecht All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT The Art of Noise: Literature and Disturbance 1900-1940 is a study of noise’s role in prose literature in the U.S., Britain, and Ireland in the first half of the twentieth century. The Art of Noise focuses on what I call modernist noise, a way of leveraging noise— understood both as an auditory phenomenon (unwanted sound) and cybernetic interference (additional or garbled information that distorts information transmission)—to draw attention to, and in some cases to patch, a communicative or epistemological gap. I examine how authors leverage noise’s ability to confuse, to dismay, to pull a reader out of the flow of a text, and even to alienate her in order to create sticking points in their work that demand attention. In tracing noise’s disruptive qualities through modernist and modernist-era novels, I am particularly interested in how the defamiliarizing action of modernist noise coalesces around limit cases of social and political belongingness— narratives of extremity ranging from total war to economic and racial otherness. Scholarship on literary sound has tended to focus on musicality, or on the impact of sound technology on modernist culture. This focus has led to a general neglect of noise in se. The authors I consider—chief among them Mary Borden, James Joyce, Upton Sinclair, and Richard Wright—suggest that writing noise carries with it the possibility of intercourse between otherwise unbridgeable domains of experience. -
Theory and Technique of Playwriting and Screenwriting
Theory and Technique of Playwriting and Screenwriting John Howard Lawson Theory and Technique of Playwriting and Screenwriting by John Howard Lawson is presented here thanks to the generosity of Jeffrey Lawson and Susan Amanda Lawson. © All rights reserved. Reproduction for commercial use is prohibited. August 2014 Revised March 2020 John Howard Lawson’s Theory and Technique of Playwriting was published in 1936. Thirteen years later he added several chapters about the history and craft of filmmaking, and presented to the world Theory and Technique of Playwriting and Screenwriting (G.P. Putnam’s), what many consider to be one of the finest books ever written about dramatic construction. Long out-of-print, this unabridged online version has been scanned from an original copy. All that differs from the 1949 edition is the removal of the “Check List of Films” and the index. New pagination has been introduced. Additionally, included below is the introduction to Lawson’s 1960 edition of Theory and Technique of Playwriting (Hill and Wang). PDFs of Lawson’s Film: The Creative Process (second edition 1967, Hill and Wang) and his Theory and Technique of Playwriting (1960, Hill and Wang), as well as a fifteen-page selection of extracts from Theory and Technique of Playwriting and Screenwriting, summarising Lawson’s ideas on dramatic construction, are available at www.johnhowardlawson.com.

A Postcolonial Reading of Upton Sinclair's the Jungle
Vol-6, Issue-10 PP. 316-323 ISSN: 2394-5788 A POSTCOLONIAL READING OF UPTON SINCLAIR’S THE JUNGLE Pouyan Rezapour* Dr. Alireza Anushiravani Pouria Rezapour PhD. Student, Professor of English Literature, M.A. of English Literature, Department of English Literature, Department of English Literature, Department of English Literature, University of Tehran, Shiraz University, Shiraz, Kharazmi University, Kish International Campus, Iran. Tehran, Kish Island, Phone No.: 00989177157226, Iran. Iran. [email protected] Phone: 00989167192024, [email protected] * Corresponding Author: Pouyan Rezapour Abstract This study intends to analyze the extent to which the theory of post colonialism is pertinent to Upton Sinclair‘s 1906 The Jungle. The novel set out to depict the harsh working conditions and the unsanitary conditions of food processing in the United States in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century. It was ensued by a wide range of readings from different critical theories, except for a full scale postcolonial reading. The present study aims to depict the lives of immigrants, in an imperialist capitalist society, trying to make ends meet in such a dog eat dog world. This feat is attainable only through the application of such key postcolonial concepts as acculturation, colonial consciousness, colonial education and disillusion to the novel. Keywords: Acculturation, Colonialism, Colonial Consciousness, Colonial Education, Cultural Displacement, Disillusion, Post colonialism. 1. INTRODUCTION Ensuing the Harlem Renaissance in the 1920s and 1930s and its emphasis on being black, race and skin color found their way into literary studies. African, African-American and Caribbean writers came to oppose be defined based on their skin color and racial background by the white hegemony.
