Description

Explore the unsettling shifts of a transforming era with Horror in the Age of Steam: Tales of Terror in the Victorian Age of Transitions. Published by Routledge, this work examines how rapid changes in England during the reign of Queen Victoria created a culture of instability. As the economy and social structures underwent massive recalibration through industrial innovation and scientific discovery, the very identity of the British people was called into question. This book looks at how people faced the pressure of redefining work, belief, and national identity. By studying the tension between economic progress and social cohesiveness, readers gain insight into how Victorians processed the fear brought on by such fast-paced development. It is a deep look into a period where tradition met the steam engine, changing the world forever.
