Description
This glossary offers an introduction to Victorian culture and society and a route-map to further study. Designed specifically with undergraduates in mind, it contains around 400 short and accessible explanations of key words, events, figures and concepts in the study of the Victorian period. Covering literary topics, traditions and movements, as well as the period's history, culture and politics, the entries are fully cross referenced and assume no prior knowledge, making this an essential reference on the Victorian period.About the Author(s)
