Acknowledged, by his contemporaries, as one of the great novelists of the 19th century, W. M. Thackeray's critical reputation suffered a marked decline through much of the last century. The book argues, moreover, that the materiality of culture, a recent preoccupation of literary criticism and theory, is one of the most pervasive characteristics of Thackeray's fiction, both as an object of its satire and an aspect of its realism.
