Synopsis

At the turn of the nineteenth century many people were terrified or thrilled by the unstoppable progress of science, wrestling with questions of sexual identity and turning away from traditional religion. What are the similarities and differences between their experience and ours, at the close of our decade and the dawn of a new millennium? Bringing together poetry and pulp fiction, scientific polemic and sexological speculation alongside classic texts, 1900 offers an astonishing range of fascinating, and often shocking, writing.
