Disreputable Pleasures: Less Virtuous Victorians at Play
ISBN: 9780415345989 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Many historians have claimed that respectability was the sharpest line of social division in Victorian society, even that the line between the 'respectable' and 'unrespectable' was more significant than between rich and poor. This irreverent and revisionist collection argues that they have over-polarised Victorian attitudes and challenges the conventional view that middle-class Victorian leisure had a respectable and serious purpose and approach.
Disreputable Pleasures explores the more sinful and unrespectable Victorian male sporting pleasures, demonstrating the complex... Many historians have claimed that respectability was the sharpest line of social division in Victorian society, even that the line between the 'respec...

Vice and the Victorians
ISBN: 9781472530424 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Vice and the Victorians explores the ways the Victorian world gave meanings to the word 'vice', and the role this complex notion played in shaping society. Mike Huggins provides a richer and more nuanced understanding of a term that, despite its vital importance to the Victorians, has thus far lacked a clear definition. Each chapter explores a different facet of vice. Firstly, the book seeks to define exactly what vice meant to the Victorians, exploring how the language of vice was used as a tool to beat down opposition and dissent. It considers the cultural geography and... Vice and the Victorians explores the ways the Victorian world gave meanings to the word 'vice', and the role this complex notion played in s... |
