Tracy argues that Trollope’s later works, especially those of the 1870s, reveal a writer who had reached full artistic maturity. Far from being clumsy or rambling, these novels demonstrate a unity of form and function in which literary style and structure embody a coherent moral theory about society, values, and human conduct.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Organized in two parts, the study first situates Trollope’s narrative techniques and social vision within the broader debates about form and order, then provides detailed readings of individual works, from \u003ci\u003eSir Harry Hotspur of Humblethwaite\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eThe Way We Live Now\u003c\/i\u003e to the late experimental fictions \u003ci\u003eThe Fixed Period\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eMr. Scarborough’s Family\u003c\/i\u003e. Tracy shows how Trollope’s multiple-plot structures, rhetorical choices, and social doctrines interweave to create fiction of remarkable subtlety, even when the author himself dismissed his art as mere craft. By reframing Trollope’s achievement, \u003cb\u003eTrollope’s Later Novels\u003c\/b\u003e invites readers and scholars alike to reconsider one of the most prolific Victorian writers as a central figure in the development of the English novel, whose best work exemplifies the unity of art and social vision that Wilde once described as the shared “canons” of both literature and society.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press’s mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact.
