En savoir plus sur le livre

Strachey offers a critical and satirical examination of notable Victorian figures, including Cardinal Manning, Florence Nightingale, Dr. Thomas Arnold, and General Charles Gordon. Rather than glorifying these individuals, he highlights their flaws and complexities, presenting a more humanized view. His witty and astute writing challenges traditional biographical narratives, provoking thought about the societal values of the Victorian era. This work not only redefines biography but also serves as a critique of the cultural ideals these figures represented, influencing how history is assessed.
