Publisher's Synopsis

Examines the ethos of intellectual work for men in a set of novels strongly influenced by Thomas Carlyle, the Victorian Age's prime proponent of work. It questions the tradition of regarding the 19th century as a time when a stern work flourished in opposition to values of domesticity and nurture.
