How were the genres of literature changed by new methods of
serialization and publishing? How did a widespread culture of
performance emerge in the period to shape as well as to be shaped
by the novel and poetry? David Amigoni draws on the most recent
critical approaches to the novel, Victorian melodrama and poetry to
answer these and other questions. The work of Charles Dickens,
George Eliot, Oscar Wilde, Alfred Tennyson, Robert Browning,
Christina Rossetti, Thomas Hardy, Thomas Carlyle and Mathew Arnold
are explored in relation to ideas about fiction, journalism, drama,
poetry, the New Woman, gothic, horror and the Victorian sage. Key
