Description

Shakespeare in the Victorian Periodicals offers a groundbreaking examination of how Victorian periodicals shaped popular understanding of Shakespeare's works and legacy. Drawing on extensive archival research, this study reveals how Shakespeare reception extended far beyond the educated elite to embrace marginal social groups during the Victorian era. Whilst Shakespeare had already secured his position as Britain's national poet amongst the middle and upper classes by the eighteenth century, the Victorian period witnessed a dramatic expansion of his cultural reach. The book explores the dual nature of this expansion: Shakespeare was simultaneously used as a tool for cultural enculturation and as a means of resistance against cultural hegemony by those groups who might otherwise have been excluded from high culture. This fresh perspective on Victorian literary culture demonstrates how periodical publications democratised access to Shakespearean discourse and enabled diverse audiences to engage with, interpret and challenge canonical texts on their own terms.

Key Features

Shakespeare in the Victorian Periodicals examines archival sources from periodical publications to uncover new patterns in how Victorians engaged with Shakespeare.

The study demonstrates how Shakespeare moved beyond elite circles to become relevant to working-class and marginal social groups during the Victorian era.

This book reveals how Shakespeare was both imposed as cultural instruction and appropriated as a tool for resisting cultural authority by Victorian readers.

Published by Routledge as part of the Studies in Major Literary Authors series, offering scholarly analysis suitable for literature students and researchers.
