Victorian literature provides a rich testing field for its hypothesis, since the nineteenth century saw momentous changes in the ways people thought about and experienced time. This book demonstrates that these changes were an important factor for some of the long-term developments in Victorian poetry, like its loss of cultural prestige, the popularity of mixed genres like the poetic sequence, the dramatic monologue and the verse novel, and the demise of metrical poetry as the norm. Moreover, the historical perspective offered questions some widely held assumptions, not only about poetry, but also about time itself. Thus, the theoretical relevance of this study extends well beyond its Victorian context. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 648 7 $a 1800-1899 $2 fast 650 0 $a English poetry $y 19th century $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Time in literature. 650 7 $a English poetry $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00912278 650 7 $a Time in literature $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01151108 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411635 655 7 $a Literary criticism. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Critiques litteÌraires. $2 rvmgf $0 (CaQQLa)RVMGF-000001939 776 08 $i ebook version : $z 9781399511841 830 0 $a Edinburgh critical studies in Victorian culture 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20240619010503.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=49A11EEA2E0111EFA856D47D28ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
