"In these brilliant essays, Gertrude Himmelfarb, one of America's most respected scholars of Victorian thought and culture, explores the many facets, public and private, of the Victorian idea of morality. Incisively and provocatively she illuminates the 'moral imagination' of the Victorians, 'the imagination that treasured the complexity of the heart and mind and that sought, by aesthetic means as well as ethical, to adorn and enhance rather than destroy the 'decent drapery of life' ". Time Period Victorian. (Ideas, Essays, Ideas, Imagination, Literary Theory, Marriage, Morality, Victorian England).
