Jókai, Maurus: Eyes Like the Sea. v1. 22 Jan 2014
Bain, R. Nisbet (Robert Nisbet), 1854-1909 was a British historian and linguist who worked for the British Museum.
Excerpt The pessimistic tone of Continental fiction, and its pronounced preference for minute and morbid analysis, are quite revolutionizing the modern novel. Fiction is ceasing to be a branch of art, and fast becoming, instead, a branch of science. The aim of the novelist, apparently, is to lecture instead of to amuse his readers. Plot, incident, and description are being sacrificed more and more to the dissection of peculiar and abnormal types of character, and the story is too often lost in physiological details or psychological studies.
