Victorian Fiction and the Cult of the Horse
Gina M. Dorre
Examines the representational, emblematic, and rhetorical uses of horses in a diversity of nineteenth-century texts. This work shows how discourses about horses reveal and negotiate anxieties related to industrialism and technology, constructions of gender and sexuality, and changes occasioned by national "progress" and imperial expansion.
