Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book comprehensively explores the genesis, characters, and incidents behind Thomas Hughesâ influential novel, Tom Brownâs School Days, first published in 1857. It draws on the authorâs extensive research consisting of interviews with surviving contemporaries of Hughes and an exha…ustive investigation into Rugby School archives from the period. While the fictional aspects of the novel are acknowledged, particularly concerning the amalgamation of boysâ traits into single characters, the author presents a compelling case for the historical origins of many of the main characters and incidents in the story. The book also sets the novel firmly in the context of Dr. Arnoldâs tenure as Headmaster of Rugby School, as well as within the broader Victorian context of Muscular Christianity. The author concludes that the novelâs insights into the social and educational landscape of Victorian public schools continue to resonate with readers to this day, as they offer a poignant glimpse into an era when the prevailing ethos prioritized the development of character, Christian values, and physical prowess. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
