Written by some of the leading scholars in the field, under the general-editorship of Jonathan Bate, the Oxford English Literary History is essential reading for everyone studying, teaching, and researching in English literature. This volume covers the flowering of Victorian literature, from the decade when Tennyson started writing In Memoriam and Darwin embarked on the Beagle to the publication of Hardy's first great novels and the death of George Eliot. The volume treats all main genres of literature, and writers as diverse as Tennyson and Wilkie Collins, Darwin and Newman, the Brontes and J. S. Mill, George Eliot and Hopkins, and many less canonical figures. |
