Schnitzler's Century: The Making of Middle-Class Culture,1815-1914
While Arthur Schnitzler forms the hook for this book as the representative Victorian as we say today, it is not all about him. Peter Gay uses Schnitzler as an example of the many conflicting attitudes of the Victorians, to society, religion, work, the poor and of course sex.
His thesis is the the Victorians left the best of themselves in 1914 and something went seriously wrong. He is generally positive about the Victorian bourgeoisie, and claims claims that they simply received a bad press and are the victims of scandal mongers. Es kann sein.
