Victorians on Screen Reviews

This excellent book uniquely explores the changes in visual and narrative representation of the Victorian age across different television formats. The sophisticated analyses highlight links between the cultural imagination of the past, its visual and narrative representation and social and political contexts. It will appeal to television and literary scholars, as well as those interested in the construction of myths of the past. - Ann Gray, Emerita Professor of Cultural Studies, University of Lincoln, UK
