During the 19th century, an influential genre known as "Frontier literature" developed out of the experience of [[Ómestaderoi]] novelists, depicting stories both from lived experience as well as the imagined historical experience of life on the [[Urcean frontier]]. These books explored human nature when isolated from the comforts of well-built societies and explored both the depths to which man can go as well as the furthest extents of deprivation that man can survive. | During the 19th century, an influential genre known as "Frontier literature" developed out of the experience of [[Ómestaderoi]] novelists, depicting stories both from lived experience as well as the imagined historical experience of life on the [[Urcean frontier]].

During the [[Recess of the Julii]] period, the concept of the Great Novel was coined by scholars and critics. The Great Novel is a canonical novel that is thought to embody the essence of [[Urcea]], generally written by a [[Urcean people|Urcean]] and dealing in some way with the question of Urcea's national character. While the concept originated as a method of categorization, during the mid-19th century a preponderance of great works of Urcean literature were written, many of them attempting to become the quintessential Great Novel which truly explored the depths of Urcean identity and its relationship to the world through fiction. | |||
