Provides a new approach to the study of instalment literature by showing how it embodied a view of life intrinsic to Victorian culture. Linda K. Hughes and Michael Lund examine how the serial format affected the ways Victorian audiences interpreted sixteen major works of poetry and fiction. Their findings show that Victorian interpretations were different from those of twentieth century single-volume readings.
