Abstract

This 10,000-word introductory chapter is the first essay in the collection Grant Allen: Literature and Cultural Politics at the Fin de Siècle, edited by William Greenslade and Terence Rodgers. It seeks to place Grant Allen's polymathic achievement - as journalist, essayist, novelist and short-story writer - in the context of British literary and cultural history 1880-1900 and to situate each contribution to this book collection in relation to the procedures and topics of his work.
