THE VICTORIAN AGE
The Victorian Age
introduces students of nineteenth-century literary and cultural
history to the main areas of intellectual debate in the Victorian period. Bringing
together for the first time in one volume a wide range of primary source material,
this anthology gives readers a unique insight into the ways in which different areas
of Victorian intellectual debate were interconnected.
The Victorian Age
covers developments in social and political theory, economics,
science and religion, aesthetics, and sexuality and gender, and provides access to
a range of documents which have hitherto been highly inaccessible – both difficult
to locate and difficult to interpret and understand. This authoritative anthology
contains:
•
a general introduction which explains the various ways in which the relationship
between literary and intellectual culture can be theorised;
•
essays describing the background to the areas of debate illustrated by the
selected source documents;
•
bibliographical notes on all the documents included;
•
brief accounts of the reputation and career of the documents’ authors.
This volume will enable humanities students, as well as the general reader, to
understand complex areas of debates in an unusually wide range of disciplines,
several of which will be unfamiliar.
