Résumé
In 'The Collected Biographies of Eminent Victorians, ' Lytton Strachey explores the lives of four influential figures of the Victorian era: Cardinal Manning, Florence Nightingale, Thomas Arnold, and General Gordon. Through his unique blend of wit, irony, and incisive analysis, Strachey presents a revisionist take on these iconic figures, challenging traditional hero-worship and idealized portraits.
The book is written in a distinctive literary style known as 'Stracheyan, ' characterized by its sharp prose and unconventional narrative structure, which reflects the author's rejection of Victorian sanctimony. Strachey's critical approach to biography marks a turning point in the genre, influencing later biographers and historians. His exploration of the complexities and contradictions of his subjects offers readers a fresh perspective on familiar historical figures, making the book a compelling read for those interested in Victorian literature and history.
