An Estimate of the Value and Influence of Works of Fiction in Modern Times

Description

Thomas Hill Green's An Estimate of the Value and Influence of Works of Fiction in Modern Times is a profound defense of fiction as a vital intellectual and cultural force. Written during a period of skepticism toward literature, Green argues that fiction does not merely entertain but shapes how we understand human experience and the moral fabric of society. He examines the role of narrative in education, public discourse, and individual formation, positioning fiction as essential rather than frivolous.\n\nThis classic work challenges the dismissive view of fiction as escapism and demonstrates how storytelling influences cultural values. The EPUB edition is perfect for anyone interested in literary theory, cultural criticism, or the philosophical defense of the novel. Reclaim the cultural value of fiction with this enduring classic.
