期刊介绍:
Les Cahiers victoriens et édouardiens publient depuis 1974 deux numéros par an, l’un sur des sujets et écrivains variés, l’autre consacré à un auteur ou à un thème. Les Cahiers s’intéressent non seulement à la littérature, mais aussi à tous les aspects de la civilisation de l’époque, et accueillent des méthodes critiques variées. Ils publient aussi des comptes rendus d’ouvrages et des résumés de thèses récemment soutenues sur le sujet. Des articles peuvent être soumis en vue d’une publication éventuelle (règles de présentation du M.L.A. Handbook).
