It must, in the first place, be remembered that the levels have since been altogether altered, as in the case of the adjacent portion of the house. Towards the west the ground stood level with the walk of the garden, which is now left perched up on a little ridge of its own, and there was a sheer drop of several feet into the burying-ground of the community. From this boundary to that opposite there was a somewhat rapid slope, so that towards the Seminary the level was the same as of the road beyond.1 The dimensions too were considerably different. As has been said, the house stood farther back, its front wall being on a line with that which separates the great corridor from the rooms opening from it. There was thus a considerably wider space from house to garden, but a strip, of about 24 yards depth, was occupied by two greens, containing flower beds, shrubs, and even small trees, lying immediately in front of the windows.2 Between 1 The garden gate, opposite the east summer.house, stood level with the walk inside....

DOWNLOAD EBOOKWith an interdisciplinary approach that encompasses political history, the history of ideas, cultural history and art history, The Victorian World offers a sweeping survey of the world in the nineteenth century. This volume offers a fresh evaluation of Britain and its global presence in the years from the 1830s to the 1900s. It brings together scholars from history, literary studies, art history, historical geography, historical sociology, criminology, economics and the history of law, to explore more than 40 themes central to an understanding of the nature of Victorian society and culture, both in Britain and in the rest of the world. Organised around six core themes – the world order, economy and society, politics, knowledge and belief, and culture – The Victorian World offers thematic essays that consider the interplay of domestic and global dynamics in the formation of Victorian orthodoxies. A further section on ‘Varieties of Victorianism’ offers considerations of the production and reproduction of external versions of Victorian culture, in India, Africa, the United States, the settler colonies and Latin America. These thematic essays are supplemented by a substantial introductory essay, which offers a challenging alternative to traditional interpretations of the chronology and periodisation of the Victorian years. Lavishly illustrated, vivid and accessible, this volume is invaluable reading for all students and scholars of the nineteenth century.
