Tom Browns Schooldays, a captivating novel by Thomas Hughes, was first published in 1857 and is set in the 1830s at Rugby School, a prestigious public school for boys. Drawing heavily from Hughes own experiences as a student there from 1834 to 1842, the story was initially credited to an Old Boy of Rugby. The character of Tom Brown is inspired by Hughes brother, George, while George Arthur, another key figure in the tale, is modeled after Arthur Penrhyn Stanley. The novel culminates in a thrilling cricket match that echoes the authors own school days. Renowned for its significant impact on the British school novel genre, which emerged in the 19th century, Tom Browns Schooldays remains one of the few classics still in print today. A sequel, Tom Brown at Oxford, was released in 1861 but has not achieved the same level of fame. (Summary from Wikipedia)Copyright Short Stories アート 世界 文学史・文学批評
