This volume explores a wide range of Victorian texts, including novels, poems, sermons, and some less easily categorized writings, in terms of their USE of language and imagery suggestive of the Apocalypse. The focus is less upon the conscious or deliberate USE of the Apocalypse as a source of sublime metaphors or as a guide to cultural decline than on the ways in which certain tropes recur in. This volume explores a wide range of Victorian texts, including novels, poems, sermons, and some less easily categorized writings, in terms of their USE of language and imagery suggestive of the Apocalypse. The focus is less upon the conscious or deliberate USE of the Apocalypse as a source of sublime metaphors or as a guide to cultural decline than on the ways in which certain tropes recur in the writings of the period. These can be characterized in terms of oppositions that both structure apocalyptic literature and characterize much Victorian writing: human/inhuman, desert/city, veiled/revealed, time/the eternal, this world/other world. The book sets out to show that what might be called a cultural affinity exists between the writing of the Victorian era and apocalyptic literature, and to argue that such a relationship was unavoidable for a society steeped in the bible as it confronted dramatic changes in its relationships with nature, God, and time.
