A Concise Companion to the Victorian Novel cover

This volume presents fresh approaches to classic Victorian fiction from 1830-1900.

  • Opens up for the reader the cultural world in which the Victorian novel was written and read.
  • Crosses traditional disciplinary boundaries.
  • Provides fresh perspectives on how Victorian fiction relates to different contexts, such as class, sexuality, empire, psychology, law and biology.
  • <

"[T]his book succeeds in presenting a representative selection of historicist critical thinking on panorama of themes of the novel during the period of what was, arguably, this literary form's greatest achievement. It will be a stimulating introduction for the advanced undergraduate with an interest in the nineteenth century, and a useful lead for the postgraduate student working in the field of Victorian studies on any one of the numerous taught programmes currently on offer."
