These specially commissioned essays examine not only the full range and variety of texts that entertained and informed the Victorians, but also the boundaries of Victorian literature: the links and overlap with Romanticism in the 1830s, and the roots of modernism in the years leading up to the First World War. The Companion demonstrates how science, medicine and theology influenced creative writing and emphasizes the importance of the visual in painting, book illustration and in technological innovations from the kaleidoscope to the cinema. Essays also chart the complex and fruitful interchanges with writers in America, Europe and the Empire, highlighting the geographical expansion of literature in English. This Companion brings together the most important aspects of this prolific and popular period of English literature. 410 0$aCambridge companions to literature. 606 $aEnglish literature$y19th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aEnglish literature$y20th century$xHistory and criticism 615 0$aEnglish literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aEnglish literature$xHistory and criticism. 676 $a820.9/008 702 $aShattock$b Joanne 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996202966903316 996 $aThe Cambridge companion to English literature, 1830-1914$92493184 997 $aUNISA 999 $aThis Record contains information from the Harvard Library Bibliographic Dataset, which is provided by the Harvard Library under its Bibliographic Dataset Use Terms and includes data made available by, among others the Library of Congress
