Abstract
In the early 18th century, British literary observers noticed the gradual rise to prominence of a new kind of lengthy prose narrative. After much debate it was called 'a novel'. Topics covered in this title include: *1679 - John Bunyan, Father of the English Novel
*1749 - Henry Fielding Writes Tom Jones
*1813 - Pride and Prejudice, a Novel by Jane Austen
*1819 - Sir Walter Scott's Ivanhoe
*1837 - Charles Dickens Begins Oliver Twist
*1847 - The Brontë Sisters
*1886 - Robert Louis Stevenson Introduces Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde
