The major changes in attitude and technique in the modern novel: 1） The public values of the Victorian novel gave way to more personally conceived notions 12 of value, dependent on the novelist own intuitions and sensibilities rather than on public agreement. 2） Time was no longer a series of chronological moments to be presented by continuous flow in the consciousness of the individual, with a retrospect merging into anticipation. 3） ―Streamofconsciousness‖ became a important new technique of the English novel. 4） The theme of modern novels The theme of modern fiction is the possibility of love, the establishment of a emotional munication in a munity of private consciousness. 2． Thomas Hardy Living at the turn of the century, Hardy is often regarded as a transitional writer. In him we see the influence from both the past and the modern. As some people put it, he is intellectually advanced and emotionally tradition.

The theme of Hardy‘s novels: He believes that life impulse is the primacy of man‘s instinct, and that any conscious repression of such an impulse will cause distortion or perversion of the individual‘s personality. In his novels, he traces the psychological development of his characters and criticizes the dehumanizing effect of the capitalist industrialization on human nature. He claims in his novel that the alienation of the human relationships and the perversion of human nature in the modern society were caused by the whole capitalist mechanical civilization, which turned men into inhuman machines.
