English 340 - T he Victorian Novel

Institution:

St Lawrence University

Subject:

Description:

The Victorians ran the greatest global power of their time and struggled with many of the same issues as we do - both public (technology, prejudice, pollution) and private (love, marriage, family). This course examines their novels within this context, starting with realistic works (such as the hilarious Vanity Fair and Barchester Towers) and ending with a few novelistic forms that arose or resurfaced at the end of the period (sci-fi, horror, detective fiction). Also offered through European Studies.
