| dc.description.abstract | This thesis discusses Beryl Bainbridge s historical novels The Birthday Boys and Every Man for Himself. The first novel concerns itself with Captain Scott s fatal South Pole expedition and the latter with the sinking of the Titanic. Both events took place in 1912 and both seemed the mark the end of Edwardian era and herald worst disasters to come, most imminent was the First World War. The thesis discusses how Bainbridge has debunked the myths surrounding these two events. It also focuses on the author's preoccupation with childhood and how childhood plays a key role in shaping the characters' adult lives. | nor |
