An outstanding study of Victorian and Edwardian fiction, exploring nineteenth-century conceptions and representations of history, and our own contemporary radical perspectives within historiography.
In Shadowtime Jim Reilly explores how the great Victorian and Edwardian works of literature can be read in the light of current radical historiography, which foresees the extinction not just of art but of history itself.
This is an outstanding combination of original readings and critical survey. Shadowtime is ideal material for anyone studying nineteenth-century realism, modernism and the history of aesthetics.
