What the college says
What is it about certain novels that keeps people turning the pages a century or two after they were published- This course unlocks the secrets of three novels by British literary giants: - Charles Dickens's Oliver Twist: More than just a tale of an orphan, this novel was a gritty, unflinching look at poverty and crime that shocked Victorian sensibilities. - Thomas Hardy's Under the Greenwood Tree: Beneath its charming surface, this novel subtly challenged societal norms and expectations of rural life. - Arthur Conan Doyle's A Study in Scarlet: The thrilling debut of Sherlock Holmes, this story wasn't just a detective novel - it pushed boundaries with its innovative narrative and complex characters. Now celebrated as classics, these books were once considered controversial. They sparked fierce debate, exposed uncomfortable truths, and forever changed the landscape of British fiction.
