Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Broken Journey: Memoir of Mrs. Beatty, Wife of Rev. William Beatty, Indian Missionary IN a letter of sympathy to Mr. Beatty after the sudden loss of his wife, I suggested that a Memoir of her would be very desirable, meaning that be him self should prepare ir. The idea of myself as writer of it had never entered my thoughts. In his reply Mr. Beatty earnestly took up the suggestion, express ing a wish for me to undertake the work. I could scarcely think him serious at the time, and pointed out to him my utter incompetence, as I had had no experience in any sustained literary effort. Nothing farther then passed on the subject.

Book Victorian Biography Reconsidered

Download or read book Victorian Biography Reconsidered written by Juliette Atkinson and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2010-08-26 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1939, Virginia Woolf called for a more inclusive form of biography, which would include 'the failures as well as the successes, the humble as well as the illustrious'. She did so in part as a reaction against Victorian biography, deemed to have been overly preoccupied with 'Great Men'. Yet a significant number of Victorians had already broken ranks to write the lives of humble, unsuccessful, or neglected men and women. Victorian Biography Reconsidered seeks to uncover and assess this trend. The book begins with an overview of Victorian biography followed by a reflection on how the bagginess of nineteenth-century hero-worship enabled new subjects to emerge. Biographies of 'hidden' lives are then scrutinized through chapters on the lives of humble naturalists, failed destinies, minor women writers, neglected Romantic poets rescued by Victorian biographers, and, finally, the Dictionary of National Biography. In its conclusion, the book briefly discusses how Virginia Woolf absorbed earlier biographical trends before redirecting the representation of 'hidden' lives. Victorian Biography Reconsidered argues that, often paradoxically, nineteenth-century biographers regarded the public sphere with intense wariness. At a time of instability for men of letters, biographers embraced the role of mediators in a manner that asserted their own cultural authority. Frequently, they showed little interest in vouchsafing immortality for their unknown or forgotten subjects, but strove instead to provoke amongst their readers a feeling of gratitude for the hidden labour that sustained the nation and an appreciation for the writers who had brought it to their attention.
