This edited collection offers undergraduate Literature
instructors a guide to the pedagogy and teaching of Victorian
literature in liberal arts classrooms. With numerous essays
focused on thematic course design, this volume reflects the
increasingly interdisciplinary nature of the literature
classroom. A section on genre provides suggestions on
approaching individual works and discussing their influence on
production of texts. Sections on digital humanities and “out of
the classroom” approaches to Victorian literature reflect
current practices and developing trends. The concluding section
offers three different versions of an “ideal” course, each of
which shows how thematic, disciplinary, genre, and
technological strands may be woven together in meaningful ways.
