Beschreibung:
Based on close readings of five Victorian novels, Hallum presents an original study of the interaction between popular fiction, the marriage market and the aesthetic movement. She uses popular texts by Rhoda Broughton, George Meredith, Ouida, Marie Corelli and George du Maurier to trace the development of aestheticism, examining the differences between the authors, including their approach, style and gender. Wider issues concerning Victorian womanhood, marriage and commodity culture are also explored. It will be of interest to scholars of book history as well as literature and nineteenth-century society.
