Book Synopsis Nineteenth-Century Literature in Transition: The 1890s by : Dustin Friedman
Download or read book Nineteenth-Century Literature in Transition: The 1890s written by Dustin Friedman. This book was released on 2023-08-31. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 1890s were once seen as marginal within the larger field of Victorian studies, which tended to privilege the realist novel and the authors of the mid-century. In recent decades, the fin de siècle has come to be viewed as one of the most dynamic decades of the Victorian era. Viewed by writers and artists of the period as a moment of opportunity, transition, and urgency, the 1890s are pivotal for understanding the parameters of the field of Victorian studies itself. This volume makes a case for why the decade continues to be an area of perennial fascination, focusing on transnational connections, gender and sexuality, ecological concerns, technological innovations, and other current critical trends. This collection both calls attention to the diverse range of literature and art being produced during this period and foregrounds the relevance of the Victorian era's final years to issues and crises that face us today.

Book Synopsis Nineteenth-Century Literature in Transition: The 1860s by : Pamela K. Gilbert
Download or read book Nineteenth-Century Literature in Transition: The 1860s written by Pamela K. Gilbert. This book was released on 2024-02-08. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Offering an in-depth overview and reappraisal of the 1860s in British literature, this innovative volume features in-depth analyses from noted scholars at the tops of their fields. Covering characteristic literary genres of the 1860s (including sensation and lyric, as well as Golden Age children's literature), and topics of current and enduring interest in the field, from empire and slavery to evolution, environmental issues and economics, it incorporates drama as well as poetry and fiction, and emphasizes the history of publishing and periodicals so important to the period. Chapters are attentive to the global context, from Ireland on the stage, to Bengali literature, to Britain's muted response to the US Civil War. The Introduction gives an overview that places these individual chapters in the historical context of the 1860s, as well as the current scholarly conversation in the field.
