Reform Acts: Chartism, Social Agency, and the Victorian Novel, 1832–1867
by Chris R. Vanden BosscheHow Victorian novels imagined the idea of social agency.Reform Acts offers a new approach to prominent questions raised in recent studies of the novel. By examining social agency from a historical rather than theoretical perspective, Chris R. Vanden Bossche investigates how particular assumptions involving agency came into being. Through readings of both canonical and noncanonical Victorian literature, he demonstrates that the Victorian tension between reform and revolution framed conceptions of agency in ways that persist in our own time.Vanden Bossche argues that Victorian novels sought to imagine new forms of social agency evolving from Chartism, the dominant working-class movement of the time. Novelists envisioned alternative forms of social agency by employing contemporary discourses from Chartism's focus on suffrage as well as the means through which it sought to obtain it, such as moral versus physical force, land reform, and the cooperative movement.Each of the three parts of Reform Acts begins with a chapter that analyzes contemporary conversations and debates about social agency in the press and in political debate. Succeeding chapters examine how novels envision ways of effecting social change, for example, class alliance in Barnaby Rudge; landed estates as well as finely graded hierarchy and politicians in Coningsby and Sybil; and reforming trade unionism in Mary Barton and North and South. By including novels written from a range of political perspectives, Vanden Bossche discovers patterns in Victorian thinking that are easily recognized in today’s assumptions about social hierarchy.

Refugees On Urloon
by Melisse AiresCopyright 2012, Melisse AiresAll rights reserved, Lyrical Press, Inc. "We are lost?" Lost in deep space. A death sentence. "Think so. We'll know more when the computers come back online. "The news was not good and did not get better after the computers came back on. They were deep in uncharted space, and there was no way to know if the jumpstream that had dumped them here would return them to Confederated system space. Though they tried around the clock, they were unable to communicate with anyone. Their small damaged ship was truly alone. They had enough supplies to last for perhaps sixty days. After that, the ship's fuel would be gone, and they would die in deep space. Captain Ringel wouldn't let them give up. They continued with repairs and communication but the mood was quiet, with bursts of anger. The crew was so young. Svana mourned for their lost futures, and for her own daughter, so far away, whom she would never see again. Many nights, Svana held a weeping young one in her arms, giving what comfort she could. Going about rote chores in her supply room, Svana heard a shout from her open com. She climbed the ladder as fast as she could. The entire bridge was in a shouting, laughing uproar. Their distress signal had reached someone. Captain Ringel was talking to the contact in the small conference room. Svana waited with the crew for him to come out, hoping for good news, for a future. "Urloon. It reached a planet called Urloon," Lu, one of the junior engineers, said. "Isn't that a First World Planet? I remember learning something about Urloon in first school," another crew member said. A com tech's finger glided over the com board. "Yes. Urloon. Settled by first wave Terran settlers but was left isolated for centuries while Terra fought the Terran Civil War. Water. . . Wow! Water-adapted humans live in domes in the warm seas. They adapted themselves at the DNA level to bare young already adapted to the sea. "Captain Ringel came back onto the crowded bridge and his smile was blinding. "Urloon, a former Terran colony out on the Rim, is sending a rescue ship. They will be here within twelve days. "There were twenty days left of life support. The crew erupted into joyous shouts, leaping and laughing so the floor shook. In the tumult Captain Ringel's gaze caught her own. He nodded slightly, and Svana knew it was an acknowledgement of the work they had done together.
