Victorian Writing about Risk :Imagining a Safe England in a Dangerous World.
Freedgood, Elaine.

Victorian Writing about Risk :Imagining a Safe England in a Dangerous World.[electronic resource]. - Cambridge :Cambridge University Press,2000. - 233 p.

Cover; Half-title; Series-title; Dedication; Title; Copyright; Contents; Illustrations; Acknowledgments; Introduction: the practice of paradise; CHAPTER ONE Banishing panic: J. R. McCulloch, Harriet Martineau and the popularization of political economy; CHAPTER TWO The rhetoric of visible hands: Edwin Chadwick, Florence Nightingale and the popularization of sanitary reform; CHAPTER THREE Groundless optimism: regression in the service of the ego, England and empire in Victorian ballooning memoirs

In Victorian Writing about Risk, Elaine Freedgood explores the geography of risk produced by a wide spectrum of once-popular literature. The consolations this geography of risk offers are precariously predicated on dominant Victorian definitions of people and places which have assigned identities which allow risk to be located and contained.
