Description
This classic study provides an authoritative portrait of the literary and aesthetic tastes - the 'temper' - of Victorian England. It considers in detail the diverse contexts of thought and feeling in which the great poets and 'prophets' of the age wrote. Though drawing also on the visual and plastic arts, it is primarily a study in literary culture and pays particular attention to the schools, movements, and coteries that lent such tension and vitality to the development of Victorian letters.
As a comprehensive examination of the literary sensibility of the age, and of the social, moral, and intellectual forces that helped condition its values and shape its creative expression, this book is essential reading for all serious students of Victorian literature and culture.
