Strange and Secret Peoples: Fairies and the Victorian Consciousness
Silver, Carole G. (Professor of English, Stern College for Women; Chair of the Humanities, Professor of English, Stern College for Women; Chair of the Humanities, Yeshiva University)
This encylopedic study illuminates the hidden web of connections between the Victorian fascinations with the fairies and the dominant obsessions of the larger culture. Drawing on anthropological, folkloric, historical and medical sources, Silver anatomizes a world of strange beings -real and imaginary - who infiltrate the literary and visual masterpieces of the era.
