Delve into the complex relationship between Victorian novelists and the era’s “men of science.” This scholarly work investigates how authors like Eliot, Hardy, and Wells responded to scientists claiming moral authority for their discipline. The core argument reveals how Victorian novelists ultimately rejected this linkage, challenging the notion that science possessed inherent, accessible moral benefits. An indispensable resource for students and researchers in English Literature and Cultural Studies, this book offers critical insights into literary criticism and the cultural authority of science in the 19th century. Enhance your understanding of literary studies in India.
