Description

Explore the complex history of social standing and taste with Victorian Vulgarity: Taste in Verbal and Visual Culture by Routledge. This scholarly collection examines how the concept of vulgarity evolved throughout the nineteenth century, moving beyond simple language use to encompass broader social implications. Readers will find a detailed analysis of how vulgarity became associated with behavior, wealth, race, sexuality, and gender. The text investigates how these perceptions influenced the objects displayed in homes and the general ways of thinking and feeling during the era. By looking at matters of style, taste, and comportment, this work provides a deep look into the social dynamics of the period. The collection focuses on the four primary areas where vulgarity was most heavily discussed in the nineteenth century: language use, changing social spaces, and the emergence of the middle class. This book is an essential resource for those interested in the history of social class, cultural studies, and the evolution of Victorian social norms.
