Inventing the Victorians

Sweet, Matthew

Omschrijving

A powerful and well argued reassessment of the Victorian Age, which reveals it to be a much more dynamic, radical and innovative era than is generally believed to be the case. Matthew Sweet has opened a blast of fresh air into the hothouse of Victorian studies. His book is packed with weird and wonderful information }The Spectator{ As Sweet shows us in this brilliant study, many of the concepts that strike us as terrifically new - political spin-doctoring, extravagant publicity stunts, hardcore pornography, anxieties about the impact of popular culture upon children - are Victorian inventions.
