Слайд 12 What does “Victorian” actually mean?
…We never really encounter

What does “Victorian” actually mean?…We never really encounter “the Victorians” themselves

“the Victorians” themselves but instead a mediated image like

the one we get when we glance into our rearview mirrors while driving. The image usefully condenses the paradoxical sense of looking forward to see what’s behind us… It also suggests something of the inevitable distortion that accompanies any mirror image, whether we see it as resulting from the effects of political ideology, deliberate misreading, exaggeration or the understandable simplification of a complex past.

Simon Joyce. Victorians in the Rearview Mirror

grandmother. You were taught to work jolly hard, you

were taught to improve yourself, you were taught self-reliance, you were taught to live within your income, you were taught that cleanliness was next to godliness. You were taught self-respect, you were taught always to give a hand to your neighbour, you were taught tremendous pride in your country, you were taught to be a good member of your community. All of these things are Victorian values. [...] They are also perennial values as well.

Margaret Thatcher, 1983
