Studies in Victorian and modern literature
This book is both a celebration of the life and career of the eminent literary scholar, critic and journalist John Sutherland and an extension of Sutherland's work in various fields, including nineteenth and twentieth century Anglo-American literature, the publishing industry and its impact upon creativity and literary puzzles. With contributions from over twenty-five distinguished critics, literary journalists and scholars, this book goes beyond merely describing Sutherland's work. The essayists pay homage to Sutherland while also staking their own critical/scholarly claims. From investigating the publishing dimension, Victorians major and minor, the complexities of Dickens and George Eliot, the "archeology" of Pride and Prejudice to examining the implications of Shakespearean souvenirs, literary puzzles and non-Victorians, the essays offer fresh dimensions to Sutherland's rich career as a professor, critic and journalist.
