by David Amigoni (Author)
Rethinks Victorian biography and some of its practitioners from the perspectives of Bakhtinian and Foucauldian discourse theory. The book argues that the biographical writings of some late-19th-century figures need to be seen as an attempt to impose cultural discipline on reading practices.
