Building upon a recent and ongoing reevaluation of religion as a vital aspect of Victorian culture, Charles LaPorte shows the enduring relevance of religion in a period usually associated with its decline. In doing so, he helps to delineate the mid-century shape of a literary dynamic that is generally better understood in Romantic poetry of the earlier part of the century.
