Tess of the d’Urbervilles du roman à l’écran : les ambiguïtés du point de vue by Isabelle Gadoin

“…Indeed, Hardy’s narrators, at least in his late fiction, are tantalisingly ambiguous, and tend to act in two highly contradictory ways : appealing to the reader’s sympathy and pity for the plight of the protagonist, while simultaneously undermining this involvement through the critical or ironical interventions of the obtrusive narrator. Hardy’s late fiction can definitely be labelled as « modern » in that it both encourages and defeats narrative illusion, particularly in Tess of the d’Urbervilles, which wavers between fleeting moments of identification with the heroine’s point of view (thanks to internal focalisation) and narratorial corrections of these subjective « moments of vision », to take up the title of later poems. …”
