In Royal Representations, Margaret Homans investigates the meanings Victoria held for her times, Victoria's own contributions to Victorian writing and art, and the cultural mechanisms through which her influence was felt. Arguing that being, seeming, and appearing were crucial to Victoria's "rule," Homans explores the variability of Victoria's agency and of its representations using a wide array of literary, historical, and visual sources. Along the way she shows how Victoria provided a deeply equivocal model for women's powers in and out of marriage, how Victoria's dramatic public withdrawal after Albert's death helped to ease the monarchy's transition to an entirely symbolic role, and how Victoria's literary self-representations influenced debates over political self-representation. Homans considers versions of Victoria in the work of Elizabeth Barrett Browning, George Eliot, John Ruskin, Margaret Oliphant, Lewis Carroll, Alfred Lord Tennyson, and Julia Margaret Cameron. 410 0$aWomen in culture and society. 606 $aMonarchy$zGreat Britain$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aQueens$zGreat Britain$vBiography 606 $aQueens in literature 606 $aQueens in art 607 $aGreat Britain$xCivilization$y19th century 607 $aGreat Britain$xHistory$yVictoria, 1837-1901 610 $aqueen victoria, victorian england, literature, art, agency, representation, women, gender, power, sovereignty, death, widow, monarchy, self, marriage, wife, head of state, elizabeth barrett browning, george eliot, john ruskin, margaret oliphant, lewis carroll, alfred lord tennyson, julia cameron, poetry, painting, mother, courtship, motherhood, maternity, obedience, privacy, spectacle, photography, domesticity, reform bill, albert memorials, grief, empire, idylls the king, alice in wonderland, loss, miss marjoribanks, queens gardens. 615 0$aMonarchy$xHistory 615 0$aQueens 615 0$aQueens in literature. 615 0$aQueens in art. 676 $a941.081 700 $aHomans$b Margaret$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0214673 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996248210403316 996 $aRoyal Representations$92353928 997 $aUNISA
