The importance of typology in the study of early modern literature
has long been accepted, yet students of Victorian culture have paid
little attention to it. First published in 1980, this study
demonstrates how biblical typology, an apparently arcane
interpretative mode, had profound effects on the secular culture of
the Victorian age: its art, literature and thought. George Landow
considers the way in which the average English believer learned to
read their Bible in terms of the types and shadows of Christ, the
various ways in which Victorian poetry and hymns employed certain
imagery, and the use of typological symbolism in narrative poetry,
prose fiction, dramatic monologue and non-fiction. In a concluding
chapter, he investigates the particularly complex, and often
ironic, combinations of typological image and typological
structure.
