An important study that establishes what Victorian writers said
about Greek culture and how their interpretations both molded and
reflected the attitudes and values of the Victorian age. "No doubt
about it, The Greek Heritage in Victorian Britain is a formidable
and ground-breaking achievement.... One of the most important and
far-reaching investigations of the roots of intellectual history to
be published in decades, a book to be read and reread,... to be
annotated, argued with, and debated on specific issues for years to
come. It is a truly monumental achievement."-Peter Green, Times
Literary Supplement "[This book], which makes major contributions
to our understanding of the intellectual life of the last century,
will be of great interest to students of Victorian art, literature,
and ideas in both England and America."-George p. Landow, American
Historical Review "Readable, intelligent, though, witty, and
magisterial... It is the book on its subject.... Turner's study has
changed, changed utterly, the Victorian landscape."-Richard Tobias,
Victorian Poetry "Turner's is an intelligent critical study of
great value."-Hugh Lloyd-Jones, London Review of Books
