A Mad, Bad, And Dangerous People? : England, 1783-1846
Attribution
Boyd HiltonPublication Details
BookOxford University Press2006Links
Description
The country’s population was growing at a rate not experienced by any comparable former society, and its manufacturing towns especially were mushrooming into filthy, disease-ridden, gin-sodden hell-holes, in turn provoking the phantasmagoria of a mad, bad, and dangerous people. Another consequence of these tensions was the intellectual engagement with society, as for example in the Romantic Movement, a literary phenomenon that brought English culture to the forefront of European attention for the first time.

The Making Of Mr. Gray’s Anatomy
Attribution
Ruth RichardsonPublication Details
BookOxford University Press2008Description
When Gray’s Anatomy appeared in 1858, contemporaries immediately recognized that it was a departure from anything that had come before. Indeed, The Making of Mr. Gray’s Anatomy investigates the entire production process–from the book’s conception in 1855 to its reception by the medical press in 1858–via typesetters, wood-engravers, steam printers, paper and printing-ink suppliers, paper-folders, stitchers and bookbinders.

Women Writers And Old Age In Great Britain, 1750-1850
Attribution
Devoney LooserPublication Details
BookJohns Hopkins University Press2008Links
Description
Drawing on biographical materials, literary texts, and reception histories, Devoney Looser finds that far from fading into moribund old age, female literary greats such as Anna Letitia Barbauld, Frances Burney, Maria Edgeworth, Catharine Macaulay, Hester Lynch Piozzi, and Jane Porter toiled for decades after they achieved acclaim — despite seemingly concerted attempts by literary gatekeepers to marginalize their later contributions. In illuminating the powerful and often poorly recognized legacy of the British women writers who spurred a marketplace revolution in their earlier years only to find unanticipated barriers to acceptance in later life, Looser opens up new scholarly territory in the burgeoning field of feminist age studies.

Shakespeare As Children’s Literature : Edwardian Retellings In Words And Pictures
Attribution
Velma Bourgeois RichmondPublication Details
BookMcFarland & Co2008Description
Although William Shakespeare is widely regarded as the greatest writer in the English language, he traditionally receives little notice in studies of children’s literature. The author describes the significance of the Lamb’s Tales as the pre-eminent children’s adaptation of Shakespeare’s literature, focusing particularly on the lavishly illustrated Edwardian editions which used pictures to convey Shakespeare’s stories for children.
