520 A critical exploration of travel, animals and shape-
changing in fin de siècle literature. Bats, beetles,
wolves, butterflies, bulls, panthers, apes, leopards and
spiders are among the countless creatures that crowd the
pages of literature of the late nineteenth century.
Whether in Gothic novels, science fiction, fantasy, fairy
tales, journalism, political discourse, realism or
naturalism, the line between the human and the animal
becomes blurred. Beastly Journeys examines these bestial
transformations across a range of well-known and less
familiar texts and shows how they are provoked not only by
the mutations of Darwinism but by social and economic
shifts that have been lost in retellings and readings of
them. The physical alterations described by George Gissing,
George MacDonald, Arthur Machen, Arthur Morrison, W.T.
Stead, Bram Stoker, H.G. Wells, Oscar Wilde, and many of
their contemporaries, are responses to changes in the
social body as Britain underwent a series of social and
economic crises. Metaphors of travel - social, spatial,
temporal, mythical and psychological - keep these stories
on the move, confusing literary genres along with the
indeterminacy of physical shape that they relate. Beastly
Journeys will appeal to anyone interested in the
relationship between nineteenth-century literature and its
contexts and especially to those interested in the fin de
siècle and in metaphors of travel, animals and shape-
changing.
