Victorian Parables - New Directions in Religion and Literature
Dr Susan E. Colon
Offers a critical study of the reinscription of biblical parables in Victorian realist fiction. The author shows that authors such as Charles Dickens, Margaret Oliphant, and Charlotte Yonge appreciated the power of parables to deliver an ethical charge that was as unexpected as it was disruptive to conventional moral complacency.
