A master historian shows us a new side of the Victorian Era–the role of the Bourgeois as reactionaries, revolutionaries, and middle-of-the-roaders in the passage of high culture toward modernism.
The Victorians in this richly peopled narrative maneuvered through decades marked by frequent shifts in taste, some seeking safety in traditional styles, others drawn to the avant-garde of artists, composers, and writers. Peter Gay’s panoramic survey offers a fresh view of the ideas and sensibilities that dominated Victorian culture.Despre autor
