Synopsis

Drawing upon feminist, anthropological, and postcolonial approaches, Munich searches out the myriad, often contradictory incarnations of Queen Victoria in the minds of her subjects.

Nineteenth Century Literature

The first book to fully investigate the influence of the solid, dour icon that was Queen Victoria, this fascinating study demonstrates the firm grasp Victoria held to the cultural imagination of her country, exploring how she created and maintained her royal authority.
