Institution:

King's College - Pennsylvania

Subject:

History

Description:

The Victorian Period, dating from the late 1830s until 1901, is a period characterized as tenaciously proper, if not stuffy. This course will examine Victorian social and moral norms on both sides of the Atlantic, comparing myth to reality. We'll study some of the main obsessions of the period (sex, drugs, crime, and poverty) as we complicate our understanding of the Victorians.
