Focusing on Algernon Charles Swinburne's later writings, this collection makes a case for the seriousness and significance of the writer's mature work. Among the key features of the collection is the contextualizing of Swinburne's work in new contexts such as Victorian mythography, Victorian literary criticism, continental aestheticism, positivism, and empiricism. Taken together, the essays offer scholars a richer portrait of Swinburne's importance as a poet, critic, and fiction writer.
