The Oxford handbook of the Victorian novel

The Oxford Handbook of the Victorian Novel contributes substantially to the thriving scholarly field of Victorian studies by offering 36 original chapters that offer new approaches to familiar topics (the novel and science, the Victorian Bildungsroman) as well as examining often overlooked topics (the novel and classics, the novel and the OED, the novel and allusion). Manifesting the increasing interdisciplinarity of Victorian studies, the handbookʹs chapters situate the novel within a complex network of relations (among, for instance, readers, editors, reviewers, and the novelists themselves; or among different cultural pressures -- the religious, the commercial, the legal).

"Much has been written about the Victorian novel, and for good reason. The cultural power it exerted (and, to some extent, still exerts) is beyond question. 'The Oxford Handbook of the Victorian Novel' contributes substantially to this thriving scholarly field by offering new approaches to familiar topics (the novel and science, the Victorian Bildungroman) as well as essays on topics often overlooked (the novel and classics, the novel and the OED, the novel, and allusion). Manifesting the increasing interdisciplinarity of Victorian studies, its essays situate the novel within a complex network of relations (among, for instance, readers, editors, reviewers, and the novelists themselves; or among different cultural pressures - the religious, the commercial, the legal). The handbook's essays also build on recent bibliographic work of remarkable scope and detail, responding to the growing attention to print culture."
