Somatic Fictions: Imagining Illness in Victorian Culture
Athena Vrettos
This book focuses on the centrality of illness-particularly psychosomatic illness-as an imaginative construct in Victorian culture. It shows how illness shaped the terms through which people perceived relationships between body and mind, self and other, private and public, and how Victorians tried to understand and control their world through a process of physiological and pathological definition.
