Victorian Secrecy: Economies of Knowledge and Concealment

By Denise Tischler Millstein

Victorian Secrecy explores the myriad ways in which knowledge was both zealously accumulated and jealously guarded by individuals, institutions, and government entities in Victorian Britain. Offering a wide variety of approaches, this interdisciplinary collection provides a richly textured account of what was at stake individually, aesthetically, and culturally in the Victorians' clandestine activities.
