| dc.description.abstract (摘要) | Dialogue dominated the cultural life of eighteenth-century Britain. It embodied what Jürgen Habermas describes as “communicative reason” and, as a literary genre in its own right, it played an important role in the evolution of the English novel. The formal dialogue appears as an embedded genre within many novels of the period. Romantic-period novels often take this armature but complicate it.
In Sydney Owenson’s The Missionary, two voices confront each other through the characters Hilarion and Luxima, a Western missionary and an Indian woman and seer. Formal dialogues do appear as means of communicating their faiths to each other but there is also that sense of dialogue where opposing perspectives become reconciled as the lovers themselves overcome cultural barriers. The novel also performs an implicit examination of dialogue by its concentration on the uses of persuasive language. | - |
