Public and Private Value: Studies in the Nineteenth-Century Novel
Peter Smith
Originally published in 1984, this book argues that there is an inherited suspicion from the nineteenth century that the historical novel after Scott is essentially a 'costume' affair, suited only to minor talents and undiscerning readers. This book challenges such a view, and in doing so, offers a major reappraisal of the mainstream Victorian novel.
