Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Literary Criticism Has, In Recent Decades, Rather Fled From Discussions Of Moral Psychology, And For Good Reasons, Too. Who Would Not Want To Flee The Hectoring Moralism With Which It Is So Easily Associatedportentous, Pious, Humorless? But In Protecting Us From Such Fates, Our Flight Has Had Its Costs, As We Have Lost The Concepts Needed To Recognize And Assess Much Of What Distinguished Nineteenthcentury British Literature. That Literature Was Inescapably Ethical In Orientation, And To Proceed As If It Were Not Ignores A Large Part Of What These Texts Have To Offer, And To That Degree Makes Less Reasonable The Desire To Study Them, Rather Than Other Documents From The Period, Or From Other Periods.Such Are The Intuitions That Drive The Burdens Of Perfection, A Study Of Moral Perfectionism In Nineteenthcentury British Culture. Reading The Period'S Essayists (Mill, Arnold, Carlyle), Poets (Browning And Tennyson), And Especially Its Novelists (Austen, Dickens, Eliot, And James), Andrew H. Miller Provides An Extensive Response To Stanley Cavell'S Contribution To Ethics And Philosophy Of Mind. In The Process, Miller Offers A Fresh Way To Perceive The Victorians And The Lingering Traces Their Quests For Improvement Have Left On Readers.
