Notă biografică

Ford Madox Ford (17 December 1873 - 26 June 1939) was an English novelist, poet, critic and editor whose journals The English Review and The Transatlantic Review were instrumental in the development of early 20th-century English literature. Ford is now remembered for his novels The Good Soldier, the Parade's End tetralogy, and The Fifth Queen trilogy. The Good Soldier is frequently included among the great literature of the 20th century, including the Modern Library's 100 Best Novels, The Observer's "100 Greatest Novels of All Time", and The Guardian's "1000 novels everyone must read."After writing two propaganda books, Ford enlisted at 41 years of age into the Welch Regiment of the British Army and was sent to France. Ford's combat experiences and his previous propaganda activities inspired his tetralogy Parade's End, set in England and on the Western Front before, during, and after World War I.

Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
Ford's masterpiece, a riveting story, and one of the most compelling examples of early Modernism, The Good Soldier is here presented in a new edition by one of the leading Ford scholars. Includes Ford's crucial essay 'On Impressionism', written contemporaneously with the novel and which sheds important light on understanding it. Introduction locates the novel as a key work of Modernism, relating it to Ford's other work. It addresses the nature of literary Impressionism, its relationship with the psychological realism of the characters, sexuality, the historical context and attitudes to Englishness. Includes a chronology of the novel's main events. Up-to-date bibliography and notes providing further contextual background. New to this edition Introduction by leading Ford scholar Max Saunders. Notes, chronology, up-to-date bibliography. New chronology of the events in the story. Ford's key essay, 'On Impressionism' in an appendix. Newly set text, using the British first edition. 'This is the saddest story I have ever heard.' Wealthy American John Dowell describes in a disarmingly casual, compellingly intimate manner how he and his wife Florence meet an English couple in a German spa resort. They become friends over the years and gradually the history of their relationships and the passions that lie behind the orderly Edwardian façade are unveiled. Dowell is the archetypal 'unreliable narrator', and his casual revelations are both unexpected and explosive. A masterpiece of early Modernism and a virtuoso performance of literary skill, Ford's 'Tale of Passion' reflects contemporary interests in psychology, sexuality, and the New Woman. Its portrayal of the destruction of a civilized elite anticipates the cataclysm of the First World War, which erupted while Ford was finishing the book. This new edition includes Ford's important essay 'On Impressionism', which sheds valuable light on his artistic technique. Readership: Fiction readers and lovers of Edwardian literature and classic twentieth-century literature; students of the novel, Modernism, fin de siécle.

Recenzii

One of the most important works of twentieth-century British literature, The Good Soldier addresses the lives and interrelationships between two couples: one American, one British. A tragicomic novel of manners, in which John Dowell narrates the disintegration of both his own and another marriage, the work’s depiction of passion and intrigue offers an ironic reading of Edwardian-era values.
The Broadview edition features the text of the first edition of the novel published by John Lane and The Bodley Head in 1915. It also includes: other writings by Ford Madox Ford (“On Heaven,” excerpts from Henry James: A Critical Study, “On Impressionism,” and “Techniques”); contemporary reviews; and Ezra Pound’s obituary of Ford Madox Ford.

“It is excellent to see a Broadview edition of this seminal modernist work. ‘On Heaven’ is an inspired choice for an appendix, as is the extract from Henry James: A Critical Study, which will enable the reader to trace Ford’s application of his critical analyses. Biography, textual analysis, contemporary response—they’re all here. The reader of this edition is well-equipped for satisfying engagement with Ford’s great novel.” — Sara Haslam, Open University
