‘The first comprehensive survey of trampdom over the last 600 years. Uniquely informative and readable.’ —John Sutherland, Emeritus Lord Northcliffe Professor of English, University College London ‘Davies’ remarkable monograph is the most comprehensive text available on tramp fiction, biography and autobiography.’ —Ian Cutler, author of The Lives And Extraordinary Adventures Of Fifteen Tramp Writers ‘Essential reading for anyone interested in the wider currents of working-class life writing and fiction.’ —Nick Hubble, Professor of English, Brunel University London ‘With its abundance of arresting examples and careful theoretical analyses, this book will interest all who ponder proletarian literature’s radical political possibilities.’ —Florence Boos, Professor of English, University of Iowa ‘An absorbing study, meticulously detailed and contextualised, on an important topic.’ —John Goodridge, Emeritus Professor of English, Nottingham Trent University ‘A remarkable service for scholars and students alike, raising pressing, timely questions about the ideology of productiveness.’ —Matthew Beaumont, Professor of English, University College London The Tramp in British Literature, 1850–1950 offers an account of the emergence of a new conception of homelessness in the mid-nineteenth century, which it argues reflects the evolution of capitalism and disciplinary society in this period. In the process it uncovers a neglected body of literature on the subject of the tramp written by thirty-three memoir writers and eighteen fiction writers, most of whom were themselves homeless. In analysing these works, The Tramp in British Literature presents select texts as a unique and ignored contribution to a wider radical discourse defined by its opposition to a societal fixation upon the need to be productive. Luke Lewin Davies teaches at the University of Tübingen, Germany.
