Victorian fantasy is an art form that flourished in opposition to
the repressive social and intellectual conditions of
'Victorianism'. The author explores the ways in which Victorian
writers used non-realistic techniques - nonsense, dreams, visions,
and the creation of other worlds - to extend our understanding of
this world, and the creation of this world. This work focuses on
six key writers: Lear, Carroll, Kingsley, MacDonald, Kipling, and
Nesbit. Stephen Prickett traces the development of their art form,
their influence on each other, and how these writers used fantasy
to question the ideology of Victorian culture and society.
