in the ferment about sex roles and the family that characterizes our own time, men and women still define themselves in terms of the Victorians, either living out ideas and defending institutions that came to fruition in the nineteenth century or reacting against these ideas and institutions and against Victorian "repression." Modern "objective" social science, born during the Victorian period, both incorporated and legitimized Victorian prejudices about gender, the family, work, and the division between public and private spheres
se inherited categories still influence the way we organize our information, not only about ourselves, but about cultures different from our own. For women especially, the Victorian heritage continues to affect their lives and their self-conceptions. Because of this, the Victorian woman has attracted both scholarly and popular attention.
The term Victorian was used in the late nineteenth century to refer to English life during the reign of Queen Victoria (1837-1901). In this book, following Carl Degler, Michel Foucault, and others, we extend its coverage to France and the United States as well. For all their differences, the three countries formed an Atlantic community, a transatlantic culture that tells us more about Victorian attitudes and institutions than we could learn from a single nation. Our transatlantic focus underscores the fact that in the nineteenth century, England and France were a much greater part of the American consciousness than now.
