Eminent Victorians


Overview

Eminent Victorians (1918) by Lytton Strachey is a collection of four biographical essays-on Cardinal Manning, Florence Nightingale, Dr. Thomas Arnold, and General Gordon-that sharply revise the traditional, reverent style of Victorian biography. Strachey uses irony, psychological insight, and selective detail to expose the human flaws, ambitions, and contradictions behind these celebrated figures. Rather than glorifying moral earnestness and heroism, the book questions Victorian values and authority, marking a shift toward modern, skeptical approaches to history and biography.
