This inspiring survey challenges conventional ways of viewing the
Victorian novel. This book: provides time maps and overviews of
historical and social contexts; considers the relationship between
the Victorian novel and historical, religious and bibliographic
writing; features short biographies of over forty Victorian
authors, including Wilkie Collins, Charles Dickens, George Eliot,
and Robert Louis Stevenson; offers close readings of over 30 key
texts, among them Charlotte Bront's "Jane Eyre" (1847) and Bram
Stoker's "Dracula" (1897), as well as key presences, such as John
Bunyan's "Pilgrim's Progress" (Pt 1, 1676, Pt 2, 1684); and, also
covers topics such as colonialism, scientific speculation, the
psychic and the supernatural, and working class reading.
