Description

Kniha zkoumá, jakou roli sehrály romány Henryho Fieldinga v průběhu všeobecné reformy veřejného vystupování, přičemž se blíže soustřeďuje na vývoj maskulinních vzorů, který je spojen s proměňujícím se chápáním zdvořilosti v letech 1742–1751. Publikace prezentuje analýzy Fieldingových obrazů maskulinity v souvislosti s dynamickými požadavky na ekonomické, politické a estetické standardy, a nabízí tak přínosný a komplexní pohled na jeho dílo v dobovém kontextu.
This book explores the role of Henry Fielding’s novels in the context of the general project of reformation of manners and focuses on the development of the models of masculinity in his novels, which parallels the shifts in understanding of politeness in the years 1742–1751. It considers several viewpoints related to the changing economy, politics and aesthetic requirements of the time and uses them to analyse how Fielding's models of masculinity dealt with these complex perspectives.
