The Technique of the Novel. The Elements of the Art, Their Evolution and Present Use by Charles Francis Horne (1908). The aim of this book is to make clear
the principles that underlie the most popular form of literature, the
novel. With this end in view these pages trace historically and by the
aid of constant illustration the development of the art of novel
writing. Considering the present frequently lamented "tyranny of the
novel," it is surprising that the technique of this influential form of
art has not been more closely studied. Its principles are often loosely
discussed, and histories of the novel or critiques on the work of
individuals are abundant; but nowhere has the complete body of accepted
law been gathered and formulated for common use.
