Strange Gods
Stimulating in its details as well as the overarching claim, Timothy Carens’s Strange Gods: Love and Idolatry in the Victorian Novel is one of those rare studies that is convincing precisely because it seems, only in retrospect, obvious—as if we must have, or certainly should have, already known this. It is a significant intervention in our understanding of the representation of Victorian romantic love, and how various mid- to late nineteenth-cen…
Victorian Natural Science and the Seashore
Victorian natural science is not something separate from culture and social life, but integral to Victorian literary culture broadly defined. This is particularly important to the Victorian period because it was during the nineteenth century that the professionalization of science occurred; at the same time a vibrant popular science existed. Natural history is part of a broader landscape of scientific culture in the nineteenth century beyond the …

Introduction
Introducing the sixth and final installment of the Common Knowledge symposium "Apology for Quietism," Allen looks at the symposium retrospectively and concludes that it has mainly concerned "sage knowledge," defined as foresight into the development of situations. The sagacious knower sees the disposition of things in an early, incipient form and knows how to intervene with nearly effortless and undetectable (quiet) effectiveness. Whatever the ci…
Quietism and Narrative Stillness
A contribution to the sixth installment of the Common Knowledge symposium "Apology for Quietism," this article explores the possibilities for quietist narrative. Since quietism suggests resistance or condescension to telos, suspense, will, and the kinds of spirituality, politics, and ways of being associated with them, it seems unlikely that a narrative would be written or read by a practitioner of "ideal indifference" or by anyone averse on prin…

Searching out Science and Literature
The findings from the fields of book history, and in particular from the SciPer project, are implicitly asking nineteenth‐century scholars of literature and science to rethink their relation to the text: literally, from book to periodical. Nineteenth‐century literary studies has long been involved with the ways in which science and literature share and transmit ideas between the two. What we perhaps have done less of is think through the various …
