Fiction Rivals Science: The French Novel from Balzac to Proust
Allen Thiher
This text describes the epistemic rivalry that the major 19th-century French novelists felt in dealing with science. It focuses on ""realist"" novelists. According to Thiher, each of these novelists considered himself to be in competition with science to make the novel an instrument for knowledge.
