Reviews

This book is both brilliant and urgent. Broadly and incisively probing the aesthetic and social practices of Tractarian reserve, Lesa Scholl revises our understanding of Victorian poetry and Victorian religion while also speaking to social injustice in our own time. * Linda K. Hughes, Addie Levy Professor of Literature, TCU *
