I think the first sentence should define the subject. The definition subpage says "The British literature of Victoria's reign", but that doesn't appear in the article. And one might ask just what counts as British. The article includes Irish literature, which seems reasonable as Ireland was part of the UK then. What about colonial literature? There must have been some. I'm not sure whether Kipling counts as colonial. Legally there was no difference between any natives of the British Empire, regardless of ethnicity or locality, but I imagine that isn't the meaning intended here. And was any literature produced in Welsh? [[User:Peter Jackson|Peter Jackson]] ([[User talk:Peter Jackson|talk]]) 09:30, 18 August 2015 (UTC) |
