Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Exploring the Victorian novel's approach to uncertainty, this work examines how authors like George Eliot and Thomas Hardy engaged with science, philosophy, and law to navigate partial knowledge and unpredictable outcomes. The book highlights their imaginative responses to hesitation and makeshift actions, ultimately framing realism as a genre focused on the probable. Daniel Williams emphasizes the significance of literary art in understanding the complexities of thought and action in a world increasingly dominated by predictive models and technologies.
