Literature in a time of migration : British fiction and the movement of people, 1815-1876 / Josephine McDonagh. - First edition. - Oxford : Oxford University Press, 2021. - 1 online resource (368 pages) : illustrations (black and white, and colour).
'Literature in a Time of Migration' offers a profound rethinking of British fiction in light of the new practices of human mobility that reshaped the nineteenth-century world. Building on the growing critical engagement with globalization in literary studies, it confronts the paradox that at a time when transnational human movement occurred globally on an unprecedented scale, British fiction appeared to turn inward to tell stories of local places that valorized stability and rootedness.
