Sensational novels are different from the typical victorian novels that had marriage or love take the centre stage. Sensational novels were filled with the tales of murderous women, disasters like train crashes, supernatural and mystery. It is described as the "quintessential novel with a secret" by Lyn Pykett in his work *The Sensational Novel* This caused a great shift in the writing style where reader was too amused and excited to solve the mystery, eventually leading to the emergence of detective novels. It was exciting but at the same time created anxiety that fed on fears that one's respectable looking neighbours concealed some awful secret😂
@@shwetagarg5961 We are familiar that Wilkie Collins took the Victorian audience by storm through his sensational novel "The Woman in White".👰 The reason for this was because this novel was filled with mysteries and made people excited to read the series (serialized first in All the year round) to know the truth; in the same way how it chills down the spine while watching Sherlock Holmes solve the mysteries piled up in front of him.🕵 "Quintessential novel with a secret" means a perfect example of a sensational novel. 1. The reason why "The Woman in white" is called as a sensational novel is because Victorian women were restricted to house keeping🍲🏡 and child bearing👨👩👧👦. Wilkie collins revolted this idea🗡, like for example in the novel, Walter (the drawing teacher) falls in love with Laura(Walter's student)💕, who is supposed to marry Sir Percival, under the compulsion of her father😓. Marian (Laura's half sister) tells Laura, "Crush it, Dont shrink under it like a woman. Tear it out; trample it under foot like a man."👼 2. Sensational novels are infused with secrets🗝 that is unravelled by the readers on the process of reading. For example in the above mentioned novel, the mysteries were: ~Walter meets a woman dressed up all in white, who remains a mysterious character, later it is revealed that she is Anne who has psychic problems and escaped an assylum.🙎🏥 ~Letters 📬💌sent to Laura anonymously suggesting not to marry Percival leaves Laura curious and tensed as to who had sent those letters, finally the mystery is solved that it was Anne, the woman in white.👰 ~Laura and Anne(the woman in white) have similar appearances and are mistaken by characters as to who is who!! 🎭Percival and his friend Fosco try to hide that Percival is an illegitimate heir, so they change the identities of Laura and Anne.The mystery is resolved towards the end that it was Anne who was buried as Laura and Laura was sent to assylum with the name of Anne. ~Marian🕵 exposes Sir Percival and Fosco in the end of the novel. Therefore, Lynn Pykett called such novels as "quintessential novels with a secret".💓😊

The Cry of the Children BY ELIZABETH BARRETT BROWNING "Pheu pheu, ti prosderkesthe m ommasin, tekna;" [[Alas, alas, why do you gaze at me with your eyes, my children.]]-Medea. Do ye hear the children weeping, O my brothers, Ere the sorrow comes with years ? They are leaning their young heads against their mothers, - And that cannot stop their tears. The young lambs are bleating in the meadows ; The young birds are chirping in the nest ; The young fawns are playing with the shadows ; The young flowers are blowing toward the west- But the young, young children, O my brothers, They are weeping bitterly ! They are weeping in the playtime of the others, In the country of the free. Do you question the young children in the sorrow, Why their tears are falling so ? The old man may weep for his to-morrow Which is lost in Long Ago - The old tree is leafless in the forest - The old year is ending in the frost - The old wound, if stricken, is the sorest - The old hope is hardest to be lost : But the young, young children, O my brothers, Do you ask them why they stand Weeping sore before the bosoms of their mothers, In our happy Fatherland ? They look up with their pale and sunken faces, And their looks are sad to see, For the man's grief abhorrent, draws and presses Down the cheeks of infancy - "Your old earth," they say, "is very dreary;" "Our young feet," they say, "are very weak !" Few paces have we taken, yet are weary- Our grave-rest is very far to seek ! Ask the old why they weep, and not the children, For the outside earth is cold - And we young ones stand without, in our bewildering, And the graves are for the old !" "True," say the children, "it may happen That we die before our time ! Little Alice died last year her grave is shapen Like a snowball, in the rime. We looked into the pit prepared to take her - Was no room for any work in the close clay : From the sleep wherein she lieth none will wake her, Crying, 'Get up, little Alice ! it is day.' If you listen by that grave, in sun and shower, With your ear down, little Alice never cries ; Could we see her face, be sure we should not know her, For the smile has time for growing in her eyes ,- And merry go her moments, lulled and stilled in The shroud, by the kirk-chime ! It is good when it happens," say the children, "That we die before our time !" Alas, the wretched children ! they are seeking Death in life, as best to have ! They are binding up their hearts away from breaking, With a cerement from the grave. Go out, children, from the mine and from the city - Sing out, children, as the little thrushes do - Pluck you handfuls of the meadow-cowslips pretty Laugh aloud, to feel your fingers let them through ! But they answer, " Are your cowslips of the meadows Like our weeds anear the mine ? Leave us quiet in the dark of the coal-shadows, From your pleasures fair and fine! "For oh," say the children, "we are weary, And we cannot run or leap - If we cared for any meadows, it were merely To drop down in them and sleep. Our knees tremble sorely in the stooping - We fall upon our faces, trying to go ; And, underneath our heavy eyelids drooping, The reddest flower would look as pale as snow. For, all day, we drag our burden tiring, Through the coal-dark, underground - Or, all day, we drive the wheels of iron In the factories, round and round. "For all day, the wheels are droning, turning, - Their wind comes in our faces, - Till our hearts turn, - our heads, with pulses burning, And the walls turn in their places Turns the sky in the high window blank and reeling - Turns the long light that droppeth down the wall, - Turn the black flies that crawl along the ceiling - All are turning, all the day, and we with all ! - And all day, the iron wheels are droning ; And sometimes we could pray, 'O ye wheels,' (breaking out in a mad moaning) 'Stop ! be silent for to-day ! ' " Ay ! be silent ! Let them hear each other breathing For a moment, mouth to mouth - Let them touch each other's hands, in a fresh wreathing Of their tender human youth ! Let them feel that this cold metallic motion Is not all the life God fashions or reveals - Let them prove their inward souls against the notion That they live in you, or under you, O wheels ! - Still, all day, the iron wheels go onward, As if Fate in each were stark ; And the children's souls, which God is calling sunward, Spin on blindly in the dark. Now tell the poor young children, O my brothers, To look up to Him and pray - So the blessed One, who blesseth all the others, Will bless them another day. They answer, " Who is God that He should hear us, While the rushing of the iron wheels is stirred ? When we sob aloud, the human creatures near us Pass by, hearing not, or answer not a word ! And we hear not (for the wheels in their resounding) Strangers speaking at the door : Is it likely God, with angels singing round Him, Hears our weeping any more ? " Two words, indeed, of praying we remember ; And at midnight's hour of harm, - 'Our Father,' looking upward in the chamber, We say softly for a charm. We know no other words, except 'Our Father,' And we think that, in some pause of angels' song, God may pluck them with the silence sweet to gather, And hold both within His right hand which is strong. 'Our Father !' If He heard us, He would surely (For they call Him good and mild) Answer, smiling down the steep world very purely, 'Come and rest with me, my child.' "But, no !" say the children, weeping faster, " He is speechless as a stone ; And they tell us, of His image is the master Who commands us to work on. Go to ! " say the children,-"up in Heaven, Dark, wheel-like, turning clouds are all we find ! Do not mock us ; grief has made us unbelieving - We look up for God, but tears have made us blind." Do ye hear the children weeping and disproving, O my brothers, what ye preach ? For God's possible is taught by His world's loving - And the children doubt of each. And well may the children weep before you ; They are weary ere they run ; They have never seen the sunshine, nor the glory Which is brighter than the sun : They know the grief of man, without its wisdom ; They sink in the despair, without its calm - Are slaves, without the liberty in Christdom, - Are martyrs, by the pang without the palm, - Are worn, as if with age, yet unretrievingly No dear remembrance keep,- Are orphans of the earthly love and heavenly : Let them weep ! let them weep ! They look up, with their pale and sunken faces, And their look is dread to see, For they think you see their angels in their places, With eyes meant for Deity ;- "How long," they say, "how long, O cruel nation, Will you stand, to move the world, on a child's heart, - Stifle down with a mailed heel its palpitation, And tread onward to your throne amid the mart ? Our blood splashes upward, O our tyrants, And your purple shews your path ; But the child's sob curseth deeper in the silence Than the strong man in his wrath !"
