Ancient Rome and Victorian Masculinity - Classical Presences
Eastlake, Laura (Senior Lecturer in English Literature, Lecturer in English Literature, Edge Hill University)
Romans in Victorian literature are at once pagan persecutors, pious statesmen, pleasure-seeking decadents, and heroes of empire: this volume examines how these manifold and often contradictory representations are deployed in a range of ways in the works of authors from Thomas Macaulay to Rudyard Kipling to create useable models of masculinity.
