Studies in English Literature 'The strengths of this book are significant: Radford's infectious enthusiasm for Hardy's novels, a clear and energetic prose style, imaginative and original readings of the novels, and a complex but plausible interpretation of Hardy's views of past cultures and their survivals... students of Hardy and the Victorian novel will learn much from it.' The European Legacy 'Radford's research opens new ways of understanding the novels. His careful readings of scenes and situations in Hardy's work demonstrate, usually conclusively, ways in which it registers Hardy's knowledge of contemporary anthropology...' Victorian Studies Radford's critique is exemplary criticism: a responsible, deeply researched, fresh reading of text and context, undistorted by intent to dress Hardy's work in the straitjacket of selectively applied theory. Thomas Hardy and the Survivals of Time is a work of discovery and fresh perception that deepens our understanding of Hardy's fiction and thought. The Thomas Hardy Journal
