Nineteenth-Century Literature in Transition: The 1850s
Establishing a fresh critical paradigm, this volume shows how the 1850s was significantly defined by forms of increasing intellectual, class, and geographical mobility. It saw the flourishing of major Victorian writers, including George Eliot, Elizabeth Gaskell, Charles Dickens, W. M. Thackeray, Matthew Arnold, Charles Kingsley, Anthony Trollope, Tennyson, and Elizabeth Barrett and Robert Browning. Outputs by these writers were read alongside a v…
An Archive of the Future: Wood in Thomas Pitfield's The Poetry of Trees
In this chapter, Frederik Van Dam and Ghidy de Koning examine Thomas Pitfield's The Poetry of Trees, a hand-bound booklet from the 1940s, the carved oak cover of which encloses a series of linocuts of trees that are accompanied by hand-calligraphed prose-poem descriptions. Van Dam and De Koning highlight the political and ecocritical implications in Pitfield's work: absorbing the fleeting presence of each human generation they outlive, the multip…

Songs without Sunrise: Irish Victorian Poetry and the Risorgimento
While the Risorgimento had a profound impact on the shape of English literature, this geopolitical crisis did not leave a similar imprint on Irish literature. Historical circumstances can explain why the nineteenth-century struggle for the unification of Italy did not lead to rapprochement between Italy and Ireland: support for the Italian cause put Irish nationalists in opposition with Catholic interests at home, while in the eyes of Italian nat…

The Edinburgh Companion to Anthony Trollope
Explores the many ways in which Anthony Trollope is being read in the twenty-first century Since the turn of the century, the Victorian novelist Anthony Trollope has become a central figure in the critical understanding of Victorian literature. By bringing together leading Victorianists with a wide range of interests, this innovative collection of essays involves the reader in new approaches to Trollope’s work. The contributors to this volume hig…
An Outpost of Modernism: The Diplomatic Design of Cosmopolis
Although certain works published in the fin-de-siècle journal Cosmopolis: An International Review (1896–8) would have a lasting impact on twentieth-century literature, the principles behind its design have escaped critical attention. This article posits that Cosmopolis anticipated a form of modernism that Walter Benjamin would later conceptualise in his ‘Critique of Violence’ (1921) and ‘The Task of the Translator’ (1923). The interplay between B…
The Pleasure of That Obstinacy: An Interview with J. Hillis Miller
This article presents a remediated transcript of The Pleasure of That Obstinacy, a documentary-interview in which J. Hillis Miller reflects on the place of Anthony Trollope in his thinking and writing. Miller first considers how his views on Trollope were shaped by the critics Georges Poulet and Paul de Man, and dwells on the way in which the study of literature differs from and intersects with the sciences. Moving further back in time, the inter…

Victorian Instincts: Anthony Trollope and the Philosophy of Law
This essay attempts to chart one of the ways in which the philosophy of law informed the Victorian novel by situating two of Anthony Trollope’s later novels in the context of contemporary jurisprudential debates. Trollope’s The Eustace Diamonds (1873) and John Caldigate (1879) push the discourse of legal hermeneutics to its epistemological limits and offer the concept of conscience as an alternative to that of intention. As such, Trollope is draw…
