Fear of the Future: Victorian Childhood's Evolution

Gender and Victorian Childhood

From here, please navigate to the different works that deal with the conception of Gender and Victorian Childhood.

I would note here that it would be interesting to return to both of Oscar Wilde’s works here and here, included in an earlier section on Morality, to discover the ways in which gender is being addressed in both pieces. In light of Oscar Wilde being viewed as a gay man, his positionality complicated and enriches his work under a gendered lens.
