Studying the Novel is a best-selling introductory guide to the novel, short story and novella covering all the essential concepts and approaches for students of English, either on short courses or at degree level. It is widely-acclaimed for its erudite yet accessible style and judicious selection of literary extracts. The book begins with an introduction to the history and structure of the novel and then moves on to define the novel's essential components. The history and development of the novel is examined and concludes with a discussion of its continued relevancy today. Separate chapters cover the short story and the novella in order to give adequate coverage to these popular forms. The theoretical approaches of 'realism', 'modernism' and 'postmodernism' are outlined with reference to popular works to demonstrate how theory can be applied. Cyberfiction and interactive/collaborative fiction are explored followed by a chapter on analysing fiction - here the standard components of the novel are covered: narrative technique; character; plot; structure; setting; theme; symbol and image and speech and dialogue. Critical approaches and screen adaptations are also looked at.Practical advice is included throughout but one chapter entirely is devoted to how to take notes, what to note, using critics, using the internet and how to tackle essays and exams effectively. New to this edition is the inclusion of more contemporary fiction, such as Jeanette Winterson. Semi-fictional/factional work, such as holocaust writing is analysed and new developments in narrative theory have been added. A timeline of novels offers an at-a-glance overview of the historical development of literature.

Awarded third place for The Adam Gillon Book Award in Conrad Studies 2009. The book presents a sustained critique of the interlinked (and contradictory) views that the fiction of Joseph Conrad is largely innocent of any interest in or concern with sexuality and the erotic, and that when Conrad does attempt to depict sexual desire or erotic excitement then this results in bad writing. Jeremy Hawthorn argues for a revision of the view that Conrad lacks understanding of and interest in sexuality. He argues that the comprehensiveness of Conrad's vision does not exclude a concern with the sexual an

Hvite løgner er ofte ment å skåne andre, mens svarte løgner bare gagner oss selv. Slik i et språk om svart-hvitt er det vanlig å omtale løgn og moral. Den moralske virkeligheten er imidlertid full av gråtoner, og det er i en slik mer kompleks og vanskelig verden vår følsomme etiske klokskap må finne veien. En handling er sjelden helt rett eller helt gal. Samtidig handler ikke moral bare om subjektive følelser eller sosiale normer, men er forankret i allmenn refleksjon over hva det betyr å være menneske. Denne boken har derfor sine røtter i følgende grunnspørsmål: Hvordan kan vi leve et fritt og godt liv med fornuftens hjelp? Boken gir deg en grundig innføring i den systematiske etikken i perspektiver på og teorier om moralske spørsmål. Den er strukturert rundt fem etiske hovedtemaer: sannhet, frihet, rettferdighet, velferd og godhet. I denne tematiske gjennomgangen blir du presentert for en rekke eksempler og dilemmasituasjoner, samtidig som du får innsikt i de moralfilosofiske hovedtradisjonene til blant andre Aristoteles (dydsetikk), Immanuel Kant, (pliktetikk), Jeremy Bentham og John Stuart Mill (nytteetikk), og John Rawls (kontraktsetikk). Boken inneholder også et eget kapittel om etisk argumentasjon, samt et om etikkens eksistensielle sider og om religion og moral, og er derfor godt egnet som lærebok i etikk for høyskole- og universitetsstudier. Frode Nyeng er dosent i filosofi ved Høgskolen i Sør-Trøndelag og har lang erfaring med undervisning i etikk. Han har utgitt en rekke bøker, blant annet Etiske teorier (1999), Det autentiske menneske (2000), Etikk og økonomi (2002), Eksistensens filosofi (2003), Følelser (2006), Nytelse (2010) og Etikk og samfunnsansvar (2011).
