. A novel is a relatively long work of
narrative fiction , normally in prose ,
which is typically published as a
book .
The genre has been described as
having "a continuous and
comprehensive history of about two
thousand years," [1] with its origins
in classical Greece and Rome , in
medieval and early modern romance ,
and in the tradition of the novella .
The latter, an Italian word for a
short story to distinguish it from a
novel, has been used in English since
the 18th century for a work that falls
somewhere in between. Ian Watt , in
The Rise of the Novel , suggested in
1957 that the novel first came into
being in the early 18th century.
Miguel de Cervantes , author of Don
Quixote (the first part of which was
published in 1605), is frequently
cited as the first significant
European novelist of the modern
era . [2]
The romance is a closely related long
prose narrative. Walter Scott defined
it as "a fictitious narrative in prose
or verse; the interest of which turns
upon marvellous and uncommon
incidents", whereas in the novel "the
events are accommodated to the
ordinary train of human events and
the modern state of society". [3]
However, many romances, including
the historical romances of Scott, [4]
Emily Brontë 's Wuthering Heights [5]
and Herman Melville 's Moby-Dickk ,[6]
are also frequently called novels, and
Scott describes romance as a
"kindred term". Romance, as defined
here, should not be confused with
the genre fiction love romance or
romance novel . Other European
languages do not distinguish between
romance and novel: "a novel is le
roman , der Roman , il romanzo." [7]
The word " novella " or "novelle" is,
however, used, in most European
languages, to describe a long short
story or a short novel.
