About This Item
New York , NY, U.S.A.: Oxford University Press, 1995. Trade Paperback. As New. This book analyzes the emergence of the modern global novel and the way it mirrors the process of cultural globalization; through detailed readings of Stendhal, Hardy, Conrad, Achebe, and Vargas Llosa, this study reveals how the spread of Western modernity, materially and culturally, has been shadowed by the destruction of traditional societies; it demonstrates that African and Latin American authors, far from being simply opposed to their European counterparts, actually share a number of concerns with them, centering around the problem of modernization and the tragedies it produces in traditional societies
