Product Information

Questions of survival were much discussed during the nineteenth century, ranging from debates over the likelihood of a personal immortality, to anxieties over the more dispersed and unpredictable aftermath of particular acts and utterances. Victorian Afterlives sets out to recover this atmosphere, and to explain why its pressures are still being exercised on and in our own ways of thinking. Moving freely between different fields of inquiry (including literary criticism, philosophy, and the history of science), and written in a lively and accessible style, this major new study redraws the map of nineteenth-century culture to show what the Victorians made of one another, and what they might still help us make of ourselves.

Reviews
Douglas-Fairhurst is extremely well-read in nineteenth-century literature, knowledgeable about his chosen authors, and sensitive to detail with an excellent ear for nuance and echo. He is adept at collecting strange and beautiful quotations and often has interesting and perceptive things to say about them., 'Close readings unravel the manner in which 'dead' voices haunt Tennyson's poetry, and the author is uncommonly sharp-eared for nuance.'Scotland on Sunday, 'One of the enjoyable features of Douglas-Fairhurst's writing is itscommitment to close reading. He can make a word or line come alive by a turn ofphrase which resonantly prolongs its momentum.'Angela Leighton, Times Literary Supplement, 'Close readings unravel the manner in which 'dead' voices haunt Tennyson'spoetry, and the author is uncommonly sharp-eared for nuance.'Scotland on Sunday, The great strength of Victorian Afterlives lies in the brilliance of Douglas-Fairhurst's close readings, "Ambitious, delightful.... Its sheer range sets it apart from the usual academic monograph.... Refreshingly free of jargon."-- Times Literary Supplement "An intriguing study--ambitious in its scope and sceptical in its approach.... The book's openness to a large number of areas of interest and discourse is what makes it so interesting and so original."-- Essays in Criticism, "Ambitious, delightful.... Its sheer range sets it apart from the usual academic monograph.... Refreshingly free of jargon."--Times Literary Supplement "An intriguing study--ambitious in its scope and sceptical in its approach.... The book's openness to a large number of areas of interest and discourse is what makes it so interesting and so original."--Essays in Criticism, 'This book is one of the most impressive critical analyses of nineteenth-century literary culture that I have read in a long time. A closely written and argued discussion of theories of literary influence in a nineteenth-century context, it ranges widely and makes always interesting andsometimes brilliant connections ... This is a major work of Victorian literary criticism, and a book to be read over and over again for its myriad insights and felicities.'Tennyson Research Bulletin, ... neatly phrased, incisive commentary is a precious feature of this book: its strength lies in such observations, in the author's highly-trained discrimination as a close reader of words., 'This book is one of the most impressive critical analyses of nineteenth-century literary culture that I have read in a long time. A closely written and argued discussion of theories of literary influence in a nineteenth-century context, it ranges widely and makes always interesting and sometimes brilliant connections ... This is a major work of Victorian literary criticism, and a book to be read over and over again for its myriad insights andfelicities.'Tennyson Research Bulletin'Close readings unravel the manner in which 'dead' voices haunt Tennyson's poetry, and the author is uncommonly sharp-eared for nuance.'Scotland on Sunday'Ambitious, delightful, frustrating, wide-ranging, often beautifully written ... Its sheer range sets it apart from the usual academic monograph ... refreshingly free of jargon.'Angela Leighton, Times Literary Supplement'One of the enjoyable features of Douglas-Fairhurst's writing is its commitment to close reading. He can make a word or line come alive by a turn of phrase which resonantly prolongs its momentum.'Angela Leighton, Times Literary Supplement''Douglas-Fairhurst's excellent ear for the influential voices in the Victorian air is . . extraordinarily impressive in its demonstration of an ambitiously capacious conception of influence . . . the range of reference and allusion in the book is dizzying, . . . and the evocation of these echoing voices provides an extraordinary resonance to his discussions, especially, of Dickens' Great Expectation, Tennyson's "sympathy", and Edward FitzGerald's nostalgicsavouring of the afterlives of friends and texts in memory.''Victorian Poetry, 'Ambitious, delightful, frustrating, wide-ranging, often beautifully written ... Its sheer range sets it apart from the usual academic monograph ... refreshingly free of jargon.'Angela Leighton, Times Literary Supplement, 'Ambitious, delightful, frustrating, wide-ranging, often beautifullywritten ... Its sheer range sets it apart from the usual academic monograph ...refreshingly free of jargon.'Angela Leighton, Times Literary Supplement, "Ambitious, delightful....

This is a major work of Victorian literarycriticism, and a book to be read over and over again for its myriad insights andfelicities.'Tennyson Research Bulletin, It is perhaps the most remarkable achievement of Victorian Afterlives that this book, whose subject seems at first so uncertain, so forced, so peculiar to itself, should emerge as a significant combination of subjects previously known., ''Douglas-Fairhurst's excellent ear for the influential voices in the Victorian air is . . extraordinarily impressive in its demonstration of an ambitiously capacious conception of influence . . . the range of reference and allusion in the book is dizzying, . . . and the evocation of theseechoing voices provides an extraordinary resonance to his discussions, especially, of Dickens' Great Expectation, Tennyson's "sympathy", and Edward FitzGerald's nostalgic savouring of the afterlives of friends and texts in memory.''Victorian Poetry, 'One of the enjoyable features of Douglas-Fairhurst's writing is its commitment to close reading.
