ENGL 358 - 18th Century(3)
British Victorians inherited Romantic writers and values, though they often criticized or even satirized them. Novelists (for instance, Thackery, Dickens, the Brontes and Hardy) invented more or less realistic worlds co-terminal with their own. Individual voices in poetry and essays took up the great topics of the day: women’s rights, the suffering of the poor, the value of the empire, the uses of education and gap between the individual and society.
