The Victorians were obsessed with death, bereavement, and funeral
rituals, and speculated vigorously on the nature of heaven, hell,
and divine judgment. This popular abridgement of Michael Wheeler's
award-winning Death and the Future Life in Victorian Literature and
Theology looks at the literary implications of Victorian views of
death and the life beyond, and recreates vividly the fear and hope
embodied in the theological positions of the novelists and poets of
the age. Now accessible to a wide readership, Heaven, Hell, and the
Victorians offers a wide-ranging and attractively illustrated
cultural history of nineteenth-century religious experience,
belief, and language in the face of death.
