This book explores the theory and practice of Victorian liberal
parenting by focusing on the life and writings of John Morley, one
of Britain's premier intellectuals and politicians. Reading
Morley's published works-much of which explicitly or implicitly
addresses this relationship-with and against other writings of the
period, and in the context of formative circumstances in his own
life, it explores how living one's life as a liberal extended to
parenting. Although Victorian liberalism is currently undergoing
reappraisal by scholars in the disciplines of literature and
history, only a handful of studies have addressed its implications
for intimate personal relations. None have considered the
relationship of parent and child. Four of the chapters document how
John Morley was parented and how he defined himself as a parent,
based on newly available archival materials. Two other chapters
analyze his many writings on or concerned with parenting and
parenthood.
