Subverting Vision of Bulwer Lytton - Bicentenary Reflections

While the first essay in this collection analyzes the factors that caused Bulwer to be so highly regarded in his own day, the others deal with one of more of Bulwer's novels, which are related to the contemporary cultural context in Britain and Europe as well as to more recent critical theories. They consider Bulwer's England and the English, his history of Athens, his career as colonial secretary, and the crucial matter of his relationship with his wife.
