Synopsis

Addressing the concept of writing, this volume seeks to re-examine a range of issues and themes arising out of the Victorian period. Coverage includes: the Victorian preoccupation with ancestry, tradition and geographical expansion; Victorian views of the "natural " landscape, of science, gender, and of the artist; suburbia and the rise of a new middle class; and the representation of opium in Victorian writing. The book also examines contemporary fiction's view of the Victorian era.
