The aim here was to furnish a clearly worded and accessible introduction to the subject of Victorian literature and to stimulate interest in the lives of the different writers and their works. The types of literature examined include novels and poetry, but also extend to works of biography, criticism, history, theology, philosophy and even science with a particular focus on the works of Charles Darwin. This volume will be of value to anyone wishing to know more about how Victorian literature was received and understood at the beginning of the twentieth century.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003ePart I.
