Biography
E. M. Forster's novels from Where Angels Fear to Tread through A Passage to India map the moral geography of Edwardian and inter-war England—and British India—with a psychological subtlety that still anchors undergraduate reading lists. Edward Arnold remained his principal publisher for fiction and belles-lettres, issuing the collected editions that kept his readership alive between wars. The Clark Lectures he delivered at Trinity College, Cambridge in 1927 appeared the same year from Arnold as Aspects of the Novel, a set of formalist essays ("flat and round" characters, story versus plot) that became required reading for creative-writing and English-literature programmes worldwide.
