“It would have been futile to hope to tell even a précis of the truth about the Victorian age , for the shortest chronicle must fill innumerable volumes.”

Lytton Strachey

Victorianism is an impressive historical and cultural reality, defined by measures and attitudes which opened the way to modern economy, democracy and education.
