Abstract:
The dream of building Jerusalem in England's green and pleasant land has become a quintessential part of English identity and culture: but how did this vision shape the Victorian encounter with the actual Jerusalem? Drawing on a wide variety of sources, Eitan Bar-Yosef offers a new cultural history of the Victorian fascination with Palestine and the role played by popular Protestant culture in shaping English encounters with the Holy Land
