Product Information
The Other Rise of the Novel relies on new research concerning the relevance of bourgeois values and ideals in the early modern period in France to question the extent to which characters in works of fiction portray the rise of individualistic and self-interested behavior.

Reviews
Delers's study provides...a welcome and original counterpoint to the now-dated correlation between the rise of the novel and of the bourgeoisie., The Other Rise of the Novel offers innovative interpretations of some classic eighteenth-century French novels. Its merit is to foreground as essential features the alternative economies or spaces represented in these texts, thereby restoring a distinct novelistic tradition to its proper place., Delers positions his account of the rise of the modern novel as an alternative to the account of Ian Watt and other social theorists for whom, as Delers writes in the introduction, 'the novel is the literary vehicle best equipped to convey through its characters and storylines the perfect rationality of homo economicus.' Looking at six French novels of the 17th and 18th centuries (Le Roman bourgeois, La Princesse de Clèves, Manon Lescaut, Julie, Lettres d'une Péruvienne, and Justine), the author argues that rather than map the progress of modern economic transactions in the 'real' world, the novels portray characters who develop alternative economies that are increasingly unrealistic--idiosyncratic, utopian, or dystopian. Initiated largely by female characters, these alternative economies seek to create a social structure in which an authentic sense of self can be reclaimed. Delers supports his analysis by using what he calls literary anthropology, a methodology that draws from historiography, economic sociology, science studies, and literary theory, yet remains grounded in a close reading of the economic behavior of the main characters of the novels. This is not a definitive history of the realistic novel, nor does Delers purport it to be. Summing Up: Recommended. Graduate students, researchers, faculty., Delers positions his account of the rise of the modern novel as an alternative to the account of Ian Watt and other social theorists for whom, as Delers writes in the introduction, 'the novel is the literary vehicle best equipped to convey through its characters and storylines the perfect rationality of homo economicus.'
