Social Commentary in the Nineteenth Century

In the tenth programme from the series "Il-Politika fil-Letteratura," Dr Mario Thomas Vassallo and I discuss writing as a form of social commentary.

The programme focusses in particular on the nineteenth century when a number of novelists, including Charles Dickens and Victor Hugo, began exploring several themes prompted by the rapid processes of urbanization and industrialization and the emergence of socialist thought.

The programme will be broadcast on Campus FM at the following dates / times:
