1 de out. de 2010 · The Newcomes is a sprawling novel by English author William Makepeace Thackeray, who also penned the popular novel Vanity Fair. Considered by many critics to be Thackeray's finest work, The Newcomes follows the fortunes of several generations of the Newcome family, a nouveau riche clan that begins to mingle and intermarry with the British aristocracy.
The Newcomes is Thackeray's most "Victorian" novel, generous in its proportions, sharp in its criticism of the morality of the age, and encyclopedic in its reference. Set in the 1830s and 1840s, a period of rapid change and of political and economic development, the novel considers the fortunes and misfortunes of a respectable extended middle-class family.
14 de jan. de 2019 · One of the great Victorian novels of social and moral scrutiny, The Newcomes is comparable in its energy, range, and devastating conclusions to Dickens’s Dombey and Son (1848). It reflects Thackeray’s long-standing concern with class, social climbing, and false notions of respectability and status, as well as with the early Victorian marriage market.
