This work combines historical analysis and readings of diverse texts to reconceive the foundations of the dominant genre of the modern era. Challenging prevailing theories that tie the origins of the novel to the ascendancy of "realism" and the "middle class", McKeon argues that this new genre arose in response to the profound instability of literary and social categories.
