Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
The Victorians Were Passionate About Family. While Queen Victoria'S Supporters Argued That Her Intense Commitment To Her Private Life Made Her The More Fit To Mother Her People, Her Critics Charged That It Distracted Her From Her Public Responsibilities. Here, Nelson Focuses Particularly On The Conflicting And Powerful Images Of Family Life That Victorians Produced In Their Fiction And Nonfictionthat Is, On How The Victorians Themselves Conceived Of Family, Which Continues Both To Influence And To Help Explain Visions Of Family Today.Drawing Upon A Wide Variety Of 19Thcentury Fiction And Nonfiction, Nelson Examines The English Victorian Family Both As It Was Imagined And As It Was Experienced. For Many Victorians, Family Was Exalted To The Status Of Secular Religion, Endowed With The Power Of Fighting The Contamination Of Unchecked Commercialism Or Sexuality And Holding Out The Promise Of Reforming Humankind. Although In Practice This Ideal Might Have Proven Unattainable, The Many Detailed 19Thcentury Descriptions Of The Outlook And Behavior Appropriate To Fathers And Mothers, Sons And Daughters, And Other Family Members Illustrate The Extent Of The Pressure Felt By Members Of This Society To Try To Live Up To The Expectations Of Their Culture. Defining Family To Include The Extended Family, The Foster Or Adoptive Family, And The Stepfamily, Nelson Considers Different Roles Within The Victorian Household In Order To Gauge The Ambivalence And The Social Anxieties Surrounding Themmany Of Which Continue To Influence Our Notions Of Family Today.
