Free Download Elaine Freedgood, "Victorian Writing about Risk: Imagining a Safe England in a Dangerous World"
English | 2000 | pages: 232 | ISBN: 0521781086, 0521028728 | PDF | 0,9 mb
In Victorian Writing about Risk, Elaine Freedgood explores a wide spectrum of once-popular literature, including works on political economy, sanitary reform, balloon flight, and African exploration. The consolations offered by this geography of risk are precariously predicated on the stability of dominant Victorian definitions of people and places. Women, men, the laboring and middle classes, Africa and Africans: all have assigned identities that allow risk to be located and contained. When identities shift and boundaries fail, danger and safety begin to appear in all the wrong places.
