Dictionary of Nineteenth-Century British Philosophers

Containing more than 600 biographical entries on both major and minor figures of the nineteenth century, this important new work provides the most detailed and comprehensive reference work on Victorian thought and thinkers ever published. Entries include individuals from very different backgrounds—conservatives, anarchists, evolutionary biologists, theologians, poets, artists, and mathematicians—and also involve examination of the thinkers' ideas, bibliographies of their writings, and suggestions for further reading.
