Neither Property nor Possession: Clarissa's Struggle Against Men's Rights
by Li Ju
About This Novel
"Clarissa" is the masterpiece of the 18th-century British novelist Samuel Richardson and the longest novel in the history of British literature. At present, there is only one monograph on "Clarissa" in China, and there are only a few monographs on Richardson. This book extensively refers to the relevant research results of British and American scholars, defines the characteristics of the tragic novel "Clarissa", and reveals that the fundamental cause of the tragedy is the Harlow family's view of property and marriage. This book responds to the controversy surrounding "Clarissa" in critics, especially providing its own unique insights into the heroine's character weaknesses and the complexity of Lovelace's character.
