Literature: history & criticism

Hardcover. This book reads Hardy's poetry of the rural as deeply rooted in the historical tradition of the pastoral mode even as it complicates and extends it.

Num Pages: 232 pages, black & white illustrations. BIC Classification: 2AB; DSBF; DSC. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 145 x 243 x 18. Weight in Grams: 412.
