Victorian Poetry and the Culture of the Heart $110 This study considers why and how the heart became a vital image in Victorian poetry. It argues that the intense focus on heart imagery in the period highlights anxieties about the ability of poetry to act upon its readers. It covers key poems by authors such as Tennyson and the Brownings, and contextualizes them with reference to lesser-known works. – ;Victorian Poetry and the Culture of the Heart is a significant and timely study of nineteenth-century poetry and poetics. It considers why and how the heart became a vital image in Victorian poetry, and argues that the intense focus on heart imagery in many major Victorian poems highlights anxieties in this period about the ability of poetry to act upon its readers. In the course of the nineteenth century, this study argues, increased doubt about the validity of feeling led. to the depiction of the literary heart as alienated, distant, outside the control of mind and will. This coincided with a notable rise in medical literature specifically concerned with the pathological heart, and with the development of new techniques and instruments of investigation such as the stethoscope. As poets feared for the health of their own hearts, their poetry embodies concerns about a widespread culture of heartsickness in both form and content. In addition, concerns about the heart's status and actions reflect upon questions of religious faith and doubt, and feed into issues of gender and nationalism. This book argues that it is vital to understand how this wider culture of the heart informed poetry and was in turn influenced by poetic constructs. Individual chapters on Barrett. Browning, Arnold, and Tennyson explore the vital presence of the heart in major works by these poets – including Aurora Leigh, 'Empedocles on Etna', In Memoriam, and Maud – while the wide-ranging opening chapters present an argument for the mutual influence of poetry and physiology in the period and trace. the development of new theories of rhythm as organic and affective. – ;The great strength of this book lies in Blair's analyses of these rhythms …this is a fine book – Angela Leighton, The Tennyson Research Bulletin;Blair uses her scrupulous research on Victorian cardiology to good effect and her subtle and nuanced arguments make this an intellectually persuasive and thought-provoking book. – Catherine Maxwell Womens: a cultural review;The need to consider the heart as a literal and symbolic element of Victorian poetry has been neglected; this book begins to redress this disregard in a fresh and exciting way, suggesting that there is more to the heart than just its beat. – Amanda Mordavsky, The British Society for Literature and Science;…beautifully inflected and original study…a book which offers an eloquent new perspective on this fascinating topic, and should become required reading for all interested in the study of Victorian poetic practice. – Roger Ebbatson, British Association of Victorian Studies;…va |

Victorian Literature and Finance $99 This book analyses relationships between writing and the financial structures of the 19th century. What emerges is a remarkable set of imaginative connections between literature and Victorian finance, including women and the culture of investment, the profits of a media age, and the uncomfortable relationship between literary and financial capital. – ;Victorian Britain offered to the globe an economic structure of unique complexity. The trading nation, at the heart of a great empire, developed the practices of advanced capitalism – currency, banking, investment, money markets, business practices and theory, intellectual property legislation – from which the financial systems of the contemporary world emerged. Cultural forms in Victorian Britain transacted with high capitalism in a variety of ways but literary critics interested. in economics have traditionally been preoccupied either with writers' hostility to industrial capitalism in terms of its shaping of class, or with the development of consumerism. Victorian Literature and Finance is the first extended study to take seriously the relationships between literary forms and. those more complex discourses of Victorian high finance. These essays move beyond the examination of literature that was merely impatient with the perceived consequences of capitalism to analyse creative relationships between culture and economic structures. Considering such topics as the nature of currency, women and the culture of investment, the profits of a modern media age, the dramatization of risk on the Victorian stage, the practice of realism in relation to business theory, the culture. of speculation at the end of the century, and arguments about the uncomfortable relationship between literary and financial capital, Victorian Literature and Finance sets new terms for understanding and theorizing the relationship between high finance and literary writing in the nineteenth. century. – ;Victorian Literature and Finance offers a rich sampling of new work in this vitally important area of Victorian Studies. – Daniel Vivona, The Review of English Studies |

The Evolutionary Imagination in Late-Victorian Novels $99.95 Dominated by Darwinism and its numerous guises, evolutionary theory presented opportunities and difficulties for late Victorian novelists. John Glendening shows how a range of texts, from The Island of Doctor Moreau and Dracula to Heart of Darkness, address the interrelationship between order and chaos uncovered by evolutionary thinking.

”A contested sight/site”: British constructions of Ceylon in visual and literary texts, 1850–1910. $49.99 This dissertation explores the problematic construction of colonial Ceylon in the mid-nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries in the context of colonial transaction, and provides a nuanced account of how the colonial perspective in Ceylon can be theorized. Wresting the theorizing of colonial representation of Ceylon away from the dominance of a patriarchal, euro-centric and hetero sexist framework, this study opens up new perspectives on issues such as colonial vision, representation, the gaze, the picturesque, race and gender in Ceylon. The heart of this dissertation lies in a three-part argument. First, Ceylon is recast as a dynamic site of gendered and racial interaction. Second, the perspective of the colonizer is shown to be far more complex and entangled than a schema of a simple colonizer/colonized identity will allow. Third, marginalized voices and subjectivities are investogated within white representational practices in Ceylon, highlighting conflicting viewpoints which are frequently silenced and made peripheral.;In order to theorize the colonial perspective in Ceylon outside of an ethnographic, orientalist and exoticist narrative, the first chapter reexamines Julia Margaret Cameron’s Ceylonese photographs, exploring ways in which images of local women complicate romantic fictions which surround Victorian discourses of Ceylon. Chapter two investigates how the issue of gender ambiguity of Sinhalese men in British representations disrupts notions of colonial masculinity, allowing white Victorian women artists and travel writers to construct alternative sites/sights. Chapter three argues that the picturesque cannot constitute an ideological frame through which the island can be described as it is fractured by a series of competing gazes which operate in Ceylon. The fourth chapter retrieves local voices that contend with orientalist discourses of Ceylon in an ambivalent manner, to demonstrate that multiple determinations complicate local reactions, revealing |

”The horror, the horror”: The origins of a genre in late Victorian and Edwardian Britain, 1880–1914. $49.99 This dissertation analyzes the origins of the genre of popular fiction known as horror fiction. It traces those origins, in British fiction, to the late Victorian and Edwardian eras when the Gothic genre developed into a number of different genres of popular fiction: mystery, science fiction, and horror. It defines the essential features of the horror genre that differentiate it from other genres, including the Gothic, as being the presence of the monster or monstrous and the supernatural and an aim to produce a response of horror in its readers. In addition to making an historical and theoretical argument in regards to genre in general and this genre specifically, the dissertation looks at the ways in which other discourses (such as advertising, travel literature, sociology) made use of the figures and tropes of horror fiction and, which in turn, informed the development of the themes and tropes of horror fiction. The first chapter argues that while genre is an essential concept for readers, authors, and publishers, there is also no such thing as a “pure” example of any given genre. The first chapter also positions horror fiction within the context of the fictions that present horror without the supernatural (Joseph Conrad’s Heart of Darkness) and the supernatural divorced from horror (Marie Corelli’s A Romance of Two Worlds). Chapter Two focuses on the figure of the monster, which becomes over-coded as a representation of multiple and sometimes contrary fears and concerns. The chapter discusses the monster and the feelings of horror it evokes using both contemporary and current anthropological, psychological, and sociological theories to frame the discussion. Chapter Three focuses on the haunted objects that appear in horror fiction and other discourses, such as advertising and political economy, at this time. The final chapter is concerned with the settings of horror fiction and the ways in which those settings differ from those of the Gothic novel. Horror |
