Submitted by Bettina Pedersen on Mon, 09/20/2021 - 01:52

This map will pinpoint the actual locations referenced in the plot of Elizabeth Gaskell's Mary Barton and that are connected to the issues raised in the novel regarding class, the industrial revolution and its effects on the working poor and the Captains of Industry-their masters, and the travels of sailors in the British Royal Navy across the reaches of the British Empire.

Please add your contribution as you identify important locations in the novel yourself and/or as we collaboratively identify them in our class discussions.

Reading as Victorians Timeline

Submitted by Pearl Chaozon Bauer on Wed, 09/15/2021 - 22:43

These are timeline events that occured around the time our Victorian literary texts were being read and discussed.

Plainpalais, Switzerland

Shelley visits a memorial for Genevan philosopher Jean-Jacques Rousseau. She commends his work for having "produced enduring benefits [for] mankind," and criticizes the inclusion of monuments for the magistrates who were responsible for his exile.

Rotterdam, Holland

Shelley notes that both Rotterdam and the Dutch in general are remarkably clean and tidy, but she is unimpressed by a Dutchman that speaks very poor English. Shelley seems to find Holland a troublesome place, its canals and windmills causing difficulty when travelling.
