This section lists sites covering general "Victoriana" and history, including "everything Victorian" sites that offer articles, tips on etiquette, recipes, and basic information on how life was lived in the Victorian period primarily by the privileged classes. See also Social Issues (for a look at how life was lived by the not-so-privileged classes) and Victorian London.
Although the Victorian Web concentrates on British literature, history, and culture during the age of Victoria, it includes relevant material related to both earlier and later periods. Similarly, it includes comparative materials from countries outside the United Kingdom.
