Lord Salisbury (1830-1903) is now a subject of intense historical
attention. This important study moves away from conventional
biography and presents an original portrait of the mental world
inhabited by late Victorian Conservatives at the time when their
world-view was coming under severe strain. At the centre of the
picture is the 3rd Marquess of Salisbury, but Lord Salisbury's
World does not simply tell the story of his life and politics.
Instead, it asks sensitive questions about how the political,
intellectual and religious environments of the late Victorian
period seemed to one of its sharpest intellects, and it situates
Salisbury and his immediate entourage in a wide landscape of
relationships, perceptions and problems. Professor Bentley takes
the reader into Conservative assumptions about time and space,
property and society, religion and the state, and the past and the
future - the very language in which they expressed themselves.
