Portable Property: Victorian Culture on the Move

What fueled the Victorian passion for hair-jewelry and memorial rings? When would an everyday object metamorphose from commodity to precious relic? This title examines the role played by portable objects in persuading Victorian Britons that they could travel abroad with religious sentiments, family ties, and national identity intact.
