Victorian Literature and FinanceVictorian Literature and Finance

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.

Race and Ethnicity in Anglo-Saxon Literature - Culture, Identity and RepresentationRace and Ethnicity in Anglo-Saxon Literature - Culture, Identity and Representation

What makes English literature English? This question inspires Stephen Harris's wide-ranging study of Old English literature. From Bede in the eighth century to Geoffrey of Monmouth in the twelfth, Harris explores the intersections of race and literature before the rise of imagined communities. Harris examines possible configurations of communities, illustrating dominant literary metaphors of race from Old English to its nineteenth-century critical reception.

Dickens, Christianity and The Life of Our Lord: Humble Veneration, Profound Conviction (Continuum Literary Studies)Dickens, Christianity and The Life of Our Lord: Humble Veneration, Profound Conviction (Continuum Literary Studies)

"The Life of Our Lord" is a life of Jesus written by Dickens for his children in the 1840s but not published until 1934. This is the first major study to carefully and seriously consider the work and its place in the Dickens corpus. While Dickens' religion and religious thought is recognized as a significant component of his work, no study of Dickens' religion has carefully considered his often ignored, yet crucially relevant, "The Life of Our Lord".
