In prose, the novel rose from a position of relative neglect during the 1830s to become the leading literary genre by the end of the era. In the 1830s and 1840s, the social novel (also "Condition-of-England novels") responded to the social, political and economic upheaval associated with industrialisation. Though it remained influential throughout the period, there was a notable resurgence of Gothic fiction in the "fin de siècle", such as in Robert Louis Stevenson's novella "Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde" (1886) and Oscar Wilde's "The Picture of Dorian Gray" (1891).
