Women, Literature and Finance in Victorian Britain: Cultures of
Investment defines the cultures that emerged in response to the
democratization of the stock market in nineteenth-century Britain
when investing provided access to financial independence for women.
Victorian novels represent those economic networks in realistic
detail and are preoccupied with the intertwined economic and
affective lives of characters. Analyzing evidence about the lives
of real investors together with fictional examples, including case
studies of four authors who were also investors, Nancy Henry argues
that investing was not just something women did in Victorian
Britain; it was a distinctly modern way of thinking about
independence, risk, global communities and the future in general.
