Description

The Melodramatic Imagination: Balzac Henry James Melodrama and the Mode of Excess

This text argues that melodrama is a crucial mode of expression in modern literature. After studying stage melodrama as a dominant popular form in the 1800s the author looks at Balzac and Henry James to show how these realist novelists created fiction using rhetoric and excess of melodrama.
