Reading Hardy's Landscapes de M. Irwin

Reading Hardy's Landscapes

Autor M. Irwin
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 30 iun 2000
Reading Hardy's Landscapes locates the essential energy of the novels in the descriptive details as much as in the story. The emphasis is on the author's habits of vision and imagination. It is instinctive in Hardy to locate his tales between the huge abstractions of time and space and the minute particularities of nature - a leaf, a minnow, a gnat. His human dramas unfold in a landscape and are part of that landscape, caught up in larger patterns of movement and change.
