Ian P. Watt

    Ian Watt was een literair criticus en historicus wiens werk ingaat op de oorsprong van de moderne roman. Hij onderzocht de opkomst van het genre en koppelde dit aan de filosofische, economische en sociale stromingen van de vroege 18e eeuw. Zijn wetenschap valt op door de focus op literair realisme en de analyse van hoe romans hun historische contexten weerspiegelen. Watts inzichten bieden een fundamenteel begrip van de evolutie van de roman.
