Description

This scholarly work by Monica Flegel examines how child cruelty was understood and represented in nineteenth-century England, tracing the National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children's formulation of the concept through literary and historical analysis. Drawing on texts spanning from the mid-eighteenth century to the early twentieth century, the book integrates philosophical writings by Locke and Rousseau, poetry from Coleridge, Blake, and Caroline Norton, and works by reformers including Henry Mayhew and Mary Carpenter alongside novels and journalistic accounts. Flegel's interpretive framework reveals how literature shaped public understanding of child welfare during the Victorian era and influenced the emergence of organised child protection movements. This volume contributes to childhood studies scholarship by demonstrating the interconnection between cultural representation and social reform in nineteenth-century Britain.
