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 the key words, events, figures and concepts in the study of the Victorian period." "From 'Gothic' and the 'Great Exhibition' to 'Origin of Species' and 'Oscar Wilde', this glossary gives an interdisciplinary overview of Victorian literature, culture and society, and offers directions for further reading. 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 work, allowing the reader quickly to find information on topics not listed as individual entries."--Jacket
