Description: Narcissism of Empire : Loss, Rage And Revenge in Thomas De Quincey, Robert Louis Stevenson, Arthur Conan Doyle, Rudyard Kipling And Isak Dinesen, Hardcover by Simmons, Diane, ISBN 1845191560, ISBN-13 9781845191566, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US The five Victorian writers were instrumental in popularizing the imperial agenda of power and dominance, says Simmons (English, City U. of New York-Manhattan Community College), but were themselves deeply scarred, and as adults bolstered their fragile emotional states through fantasies of empire. She looks not only as the youthful experiences of the writers themselves, but also at child rearing attitudes during the British imperial period. Distributed in the US by ISBS.
