Publisher Description
Autobiographies have held a central place in Victorian prose since the revitalization of that field of study in the 1950S and 1960S; however, the application of gender studies to this "male-dominated" genre has been neglected. This essay suggests an approach to studying the "masculinites" in autobiographies by John Henry Newman, John Stuart Mill, Anthony Trollope, and John Ruskin. **********
