Achieve Studying The Novel Crafted By Jeremy Hawthorn Ebook

and clear. The book was quite helpful amp fairly an easy read, Certainly took me back to basics! A concise and easy read, if a bit bare bones, This serves well as a basic introduction to the novel but I was hoping for a bit more detail, The sections were arranged rather haphazardly for my taste though, Also I had a brief look at the fifth edition and it seems Hawthorn has taken out bits and pieces here and there bits and pieces which were perfectly alright and should've remained.
Not sure the replacement of the critical commonplace term 'focalisation' with 'perspective' is a good idea either not even a note that the former is a critical commonplace.
The writer is a complete and utter twat, but the information in the book is actually pretty good, I wouldn't exactly recommend it, but it's not a hard book to get through, Please note: this review corresponds to theth edition not theth, forthcoming in Spring,

An outstanding overview of key issues in prose fiction, Studying the Novel covers a wide range of technical information with an approachable blend of clarity, sophistication, and concision.

Examples from across centuries and cultures include important canonical works along with an expanded presentation of voices and concepts in World Literature and popular genres.
Hawthorns efficient survey of historical, formal, and critical approaches is especially useful for teaching, and the material on versions, adaptations, and translations, as well as the challenges and opportunities of digital media, provide students with a lexicon to articulate the impact of shifting generic grounds.
This is a teaching resource Ill be turning to time and again, فتحالله بینیاز یک لیست صدتایی داده از کتابهایی که برای منتقد شدن باید خواند و این کتاب هم توی آن لیست است. من البته نمیخواهم منتقد باشم اما کتاب برایم مفیدتر از sitelinkجنبههای رمان از فورستر بود. شاید به جهت کاربردیتر بودن مباحث هر چند که مولف چند جایی به فورستر ارجاع داده بود.

كتاب يدرسNov Didn't read all of this, just bits and pieces, but found it very useful for my English degree.


Dec Have been reading more bits of this over the past few weeks and I'm finding it much more useful and enjoyable as a book, so I've boosted the rating by another star.
Essential reading for anyone studying a literature degree, I'll be reading it again for my dissertation, The whole 'Studying ' Series is brilliant. Easy to read and really adaptable,

It took me a while to read with many pauses due to other reading and studying but I've used it in research and training.
Brilliant. It is a simple and straight book, but stiff and cold nevertheless, A lot of changed after the first edition which received tremendous criticism for its definition of the novel, and the author added a lot of unnecessary and out of context passages to sound more feminist and progressive! كتاب از الف تا ي "رمان" و تمام وابسته هايش رو توضيح داد يه كتاب با نگاهي انتقادي قطعي سبك و كم حجم بياني ساده و قلمي روان همراه با ارجاعات بسيار كه به هرچه قابل فهم تر كردن متن كمك مي كند
تمامي آن چيزي كه نويسنده يا مترجم رمان احتياج دارد و حتي منتقد
ابتدا از ريشه ي واژه شروع شد به تاريخچه ي رمان رسيد بعد انواع آن بررسي شد و ساختار خود رمان در انتها شيوه هاي نقد و انواع روش هاي نقد داستان Very helpful.
Often dip into it still, Brilliant book! Very useful for both study and interest, Would definitely recommend! This is a great introduction for anyone in their first year as an English undergraduate, It covers all the basics in an accessible way with clear definitions and signposts for further reading, A book I will dip into again as I further my studies, I picked this up at the library yesterday afternoon and read it from covertocover overnight, It's an excellent overview of the academic territory with surprisingly contemporary references no offence meant to the author: it just looked like a drier, older book on the shelf! Hawthorn's obviously gone to considerable effort to rethink and rewrite sections each time the book is released.
I read the fourth edition I see that it's now out in a fifth one, Wish that I'd read it before going to university it even has a succinct summary of all the new fangled critical positions at the back.
Recommended. This is full of very useful information, and it's written in a clear and very easytounderstand way, However, it doesn't go into a great amount of detail, I know brevity is the soul of wit and all but this book could be a little more in depth with the things it talks about.
However, as an INTRODUCTION to studying the novel, this book is to be honest pretty good, You could certainly do a lot worse! But as a work explaining how to be a good reader it is functional but pretty sparse.


It's also unbelievably arid and dry, and structured bizarrely poorly, I don't really know Jeremy Hawthorn's work or reputation I can't help but notice another reviewer on this site doesn't think much of him as a person, for no reason I could find after googling his name, but he doesn't settle a reader into a new idea as well as he could.
The introduction to the fifth edition is very oddly written, seeming to suggest the reader should already be familiar with previous editions of this book and then the introduction sets up a later chapter, jumping into a discussion about Structuralism and the difference between Synchronic readings and Diachronic readings of a text.
This is then followed by the first chapter, which attempts to define the word 'novel' and the history of the novel as a concept.
A better structure would help this book immensely maybe this is fixed with more recent editions

EDIT: I see the reviewer who called Jeremy Hawthorn a 'twat' had him respond to her review, which I find really funny! Now in its seventh edition, Studying the Novel is an authoritative introduction to the study of the novel at undergraduate level.
Updated throughout to reflect the profound impact of ereading and digital resources on the contemporary study of literature, the book also now includes a wider range of international examples to reflect the growing field of world literature.


Providing a complete guide to studying the novel in one easytoread volume, the book covers:
