Book Eminent Victorians

Download or read book Eminent Victorians written by Lytton Strachey and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2003 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eminent Victorians is a groundbreaking work of biography that raised the genre to the level of high art. It replaced reverence with skepticism and Strachey's wit, iconoclasm, and narrative skill liberated the biographical enterprise. His portraits of Cardinal Manning, Florence Nightingale, Thomas Arnold, and General Gordon changed perceptions of the Victorians for a generation. Lytton Strachey's biographical essays on four "eminent Victorians" dropped an explosive charge on Victorian England when the book was published in 1918. It ushered in the modern biography and raised the genre to the level of high literary art. Strachey approached his subjects with skepticism rather than reverence, and his iconoclastic wit and engaging narratives thrilled as well as shocked his contemporaries. Debunking Church, Public School and Empire, his portraits of Cardinal Manning, Florence Nightingale, Dr. Arnold of Rugby, and General Gordon of Khartoum changed perceptions of the Victorians for a generation. This edition is unique in being fully annotated and in drawing on the full range of Strachey's manuscript materials and literary remains.

Book excerpt: Selected by the Modern Library as one of the 100 best nonfiction books of all time "Eminent Victorians" marked an epoch in the art of biography; it also helped to crack the old myths of high Victorianism and to usher in a new spirit by which chauvinism, hypocrisy and the stiff upper lip were debunked.

Book F  J  A  Hort

    Book Details:
  • Author : Graham Patrick
  • Publisher : Bloomsbury Publishing
  • Release : 2015-01-29
  • ISBN : 1474231659
  • Pages : 134 pages

Download or read book F J A Hort written by Graham Patrick and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2015-01-29 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first study of a Victorian churchman and biblical scholar whose name is well known but whose significance is generally misunderstood. One of his contemporaries described Hort as 'the greatest of all our names', not primarily for his work as a textual scholar but for the quality of his theological thought on the controversies of the day, like Christian socialism, the question of eternal punishment and the Darwinian Controversy. The book makes an important and interesting addition to our knowledge of the Victorian church and the intellectual circle in Cambridge in the late nineteenth century and is a sympathetic but not uncritical portrait of a late-flowering Renaissance man, who was philosopher, scientist and historian as well as biblical scholar and theologian.
