These essays move from the general to the particular: from excavations of the material and intellectual conditions of Victorian reading to the consequences of such excavations in readings of individual texts. They address a set of interlocking issues central to understanding Victorian reading: the material and social settings of reading; the concrete realities of books and periodicals; and the consequences of the mass circulation of texts.
