His novel The Woman in White became hugely successful and popularised a style of writing that came to be known as sensation fiction. This Companion highlights the energy, the impact and the inventiveness of the novels that were written in 'sensational' style, including the work of Mary Elizabeth Braddon, Mrs Henry Wood and Florence Marryat. It contains fifteen specially-commissioned essays and includes a chronology and a guide to further reading. Accessible yet rigorous, this Companion questions what influenced the shape and texture of the sensation novel, and what its repercussions were both in the nineteenth century and up to the present day."--Publisher's description. 650 0 $a English fiction $y 19th century $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Sensationalism in literature. 650 0 $a Literature and society $z Great Britain $x History $y 19th century. 650 7 $a Sensationsroman. $2 gnd 650 7 $a Englisch. $2 gnd 650 7 $a English fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00910817 650 7 $a Literature and society. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01000096 650 7 $a Sensationalism in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01896100 651 7 $a Great Britain. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204623 648 7 $a 1800 - 1899 $2 fast 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411635 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 700 1 $a Mangham, Andrew, $d 1979- $e editor. 830 0 $a Cambridge companions to topics. 941 $a 3 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20180126032235.0 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20140918010724.0 952 $l OIAX792 $d 20140917012736.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=06A479501D3311E4AFEA258CDAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
