Greece, a nascent state, partook in the ‘Exhibition of the Works of Industry of All Nations’ with a display that attested to modern economic interests and a knowledge of the commercial value of its past: the thirty one exhibits included products for exports like tobacco, raisins, and figs, some fabrics and garments, and several types of marble which were shown side by side with national Greek costumes, woodcarvings, marble bas-reliefs, and reproductions of ancient monuments. The marginal position of the Greek display on the floor plan of the Exhibition designated the country as belonging more to the Orient, rather than the European nations. Located in an imaginary ‘grey area,’ between the European West and the Levantine East, the Greek pavilion reinforces the Victorian impulse to negotiate the old with the new and thus contributes to the cultural hybridity that characterised modern Greece. I suggest that the display and the ways it was received in the press be viewed as a register of the relation between Victorian culture and modern Greece, a country which resisted taxonomy and assimilation within the given modern categorisations.","PeriodicalId":512440,"journal":{"name":"Victoriographies","volume":"27 7","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140086060","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

I suggest that this overtly feminist impulse in rewriting the Victorian world of Conan Doyle is supplemented in Springer's novel with a nod toward the politics of intersectionality which attends to the ways in which gendered, class-based, and racialised identities become relational in an axiomatics of capitalist-colonialism. Particularly in conversation with Conan Doyle's 1892 short story, ‘The Adventure of the Speckled Band’, Springer's narrative takes a meta-critical neo-Victorian stance in encouraging its young audience to do three important things: first, mine the subtext of Conan Doyle's detective fiction for the broad anxieties it points to in imperial Victorian culture; second, probe the conditions of colonial commerce under which identities based in gender, race, and class differentials intersect with one another; and third, ask how to develop a decolonial praxis that in exposing such intersections, can avoid isolationist critical proclivities, and embrace instead a transnational and comparative sensibility of reading that is alive to at once specific and interrelated disempowerments.","PeriodicalId":512440,"journal":{"name":"Victoriographies","volume":"20 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140082958","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The article argues that the two women's relationship serves as a metaphor for the feminist debate on difference, negotiated in neo-Victorian fiction, and dramatises the process whereby support is consciously and actively offered in order to defy oppression and alleviate suffering, despite their different positionalities. A key aspect of this process is the (literal and metaphorical) journey which Sugar undertakes to the sites of Agnes's lived experience, which provides her with an insight into the kind of oppression Agnes experiences and enables her to offer the latter woman the assistance she needs. Feminist solidarity, the article asserts, is ultimately conceptualised as a feminist utopia, as Agnes's desired mode of aid entails that she chase her own utopia once Sugar liberates her. In this way, the text asserts the necessity of thinking about feminist solidarity as feasible within the context of late-twentieth and early-twenty-first-century feminist controversies on that issue.","PeriodicalId":512440,"journal":{"name":"Victoriographies","volume":"102 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140089004","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
