Publisher's Synopsis
J. Stuart Walters' study of the literary and ethical legacy of the British novelist Mrs. Humphry Ward is a thoughtful and incisive analysis of one of the most controversial figures of the Edwardian era. From her groundbreaking novel Robert Elsmere to her later works examining social and religious themes, Ward challenged conventional wisdom and sparked a lively debate about the role of fiction in shaping public opinion. Walters' book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of British literature or the social and political debates of the early 20th century.
