Conflict and Difference in Nineteenth-Century Literature - by D Birch & M Llewellyn (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

How should we understand Victorian conflict? The Victorians were divided between multiple views of the political, religious and social issues that motivated their changing aspirations. Such debates are a fundamental aspect of the literature of the period and these essays propose new ways of understanding their significance.
