Two years later, in 'The Tender Passion', Gay continued his eloquent, psycho-analytically informed exploration of the Victorian era & its middle classes. Whereas 'Education of the Senses' focused on the sexual attitudes & practices of the 19th-century bourgeoisie, 'The Tender Passion' concentrates on their notions of love. No less revisionist than he was in his first volume, Gay argues here that the Victorians were able not only to enjoy their sexuality but to know love in its most exalted sense. The realities of love for the Victorians, he shows, came much closer to their ideals than many have thought. Gay delves into a huge body of material, from philosophical treatises to medical texts, from letters & diaries to works of fiction. The book is replete w/ fascinating insights into the lives & works of individual Victorians (Dickens, Stendhal, Wagner, Oscar Wilde, Beatrice Potter & Sydney Webb, among them) & his discussions range from the "discovery" of homosexuality to the ways love was diverted or disguised in music & religion. Particularly compelling is the opening section in which Gay analyzes in depth the separate love stories of 2 young men, one English and one German, stories which, in Gay's view, "dramatize some of the careers in love open to the middle class in the decades of Victoria and beyond." A work of remarkable learning, analytical sophistication, and stylistic verve, 'The Tender Passion' is an impressive addition to a monumental historical enterprise. * ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Peter Gay, Sterling Professor of History Emeritus at Yale University, is the author of many acclaimed books. * SHIPPING: MNEMOSYNE carefully wraps, labels & custom-packages this fine book for FREE domestic shipment via USPS MEDIA MAIL or USPS PRIORITY MAIL for our posted below-cost additional fee of $12.00 & to all international destinations via USPS FIRST CLASS INTERNATIONAL AIRMAIL at our posted rates.
