Victorian Jesus explores the relationship between historian J.R. Seeley and his publisher Alexander Macmillan as they sought to keep Seeley's authorship a secret while also trying to exploit the public interest."-- $c Provided by publisher. 520 $a "Ian Hesketh highlights how Ecce Homo's reception encapsulates how Victorians came to terms with rapidly changing religious views in the second half of the nineteenth century. Hesketh critically examines Seeley's career and public image, and the publication and reception of his controversial work. Readers and commentators sought to discover the author's identity in order to uncover the hidden meaning of the book, and this engendered a lively debate about the ethics of anonymous publishing. In Victorian Jesus, Ian Hesketh argues for the centrality of this moment in the history of anonymity in book and periodical publishing throughout the century."-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a Seeley, John Robert, $c Sir, $d 1834-1895. 600 10 $a Seeley, John Robert, $c Sir, $d 1834-1895. $t Ecce Homo. 600 00 $a Jesus Christ $x In literature. 650 0 $a Historians $z Great Britain $v Biography. 650 0 $a Anonymous writings, English $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Authors and publishers $z Great Britain $x History $y 19th century. 650 0 $a Publishers and publishing $z Great Britain $x History $y 19th century. 650 0 $a Religion and literature $z Great Britain $x History $y 19th century. 650 0 $a Literature and society $z Great Britain $x History $y 19th century. 830 0 $a Studies in book and print culture. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20180104061951.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=28210352D98A11E78F813B5397128E48 994 $a 92 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
