Edited by Justin Wintle, this ambitious reference work chronicles the lives and legacies of the artists, writers, scientists, philosophers, and political thinkers whose ideas and creations gave the Victorian age — and the broader period from the Napoleonic era to the eve of the First World War — its enduring character. From the Romantic poets to the pioneers of Darwinism, from Impressionist painters to socialist theorists, each entry illuminates the individual contributions that collectively forged the cultural landscape of the modern West.\n\nThe volume stands as an invaluable resource for students, scholars, and general readers alike, offering concise yet substantive biographical portraits that situate each figure within their historical and intellectual context. Wintle's editorial approach is both rigorous and accessible, drawing on a broad range of disciplines to argue that culture is not the product of isolated genius, but of a vast, interconnected web of influence and exchange. Who among these remarkable individuals ultimately left the deepest mark on the century that made us who we are?\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49342761926875,"sku":"2026100008746-SECONDHAND","price":40.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/0a226331-96f4-4a2f-88cb-5db716ab40d9.png?v=1790048733","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100008746-secondhand-makers-of-nineteenth-century-culture-1800-1914","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
