More about the book

Exploring the Victorian period, the essays challenge the notion that it contrasts sharply with contemporary society. They reveal how Victorian culture grappled with issues of truth, certainty, and identity, reflecting postmodern concerns. Topics range from societal attitudes towards alcohol to the poetry of Browning, and from the Great Exhibition to the story of the Elephant Man. The collection highlights how Victorians navigated their challenges and offers valuable insights applicable to modern times.
