Description

George MacDonald (1824-1905) is one of the great Victorians, friend to John Ruskin, Lewis Carroll, and Arthur Hughes, among others.

He wrote in virtually all the genres-fiction, drama, sermons, poetry, criticism, fantasy-but is perhaps best remembered as one of the greatest and most enduringly influential of the Victorian writers for children.

Sixteen essays-five reprints and eleven original-analyze MacDonald's work for children.

All the full-length fantasies-At the Back of the North Wind, The Princess and the Goblin, The Princess and Curdie, The Lost Princess-and the major short pieces-"The Light Princess," "The Golden Key," "Cross Purposes," "The Giant's Heart" receive extended commentary. Contributors: Celia Anderson, Melba Battin, A. Waller Hastings, Cynthia Marshall, Rod McGillis, Michael Mendelson, Nancy-Lou Patterson, Stephen Prickett, William Raeper, Frank Riga, Cordelia Sherman, Joseph Sigman, Lesley Smith, and Nancy Willard.
