Studies in the Victorian Novel

This course is an advanced study of selected Victorian Novels and their representation of the broader world of Victorian culture. The Victorian period was a time of working-class activism, increased recognition of the need for women's rights, industrialization, scientific discovery, and changing ideas about race. By examining how these novels both reflect and helped shape the time period, students will understand how these works engaged with the difficult age in which they were produced, and use contemporary literary theory and analysis to study the context and critical reaction to those works. Offered online only. Every other year. Standard 1
