Victorian Britain
Victorian Britain (1837-1901) was a time of immense industrial growth, colonial expansion, and cultural reform. The British Empire reached its peak during this period, and the cultural landscape was shaped by technological innovation and urbanization. Legends and myths of the time included figures such as Jack the Ripper, whose identity was never discovered.The period also gave rise to an obsession with the supernatural, from ghost stories to séances. The fairy folklore that was popular among the working classes reflected the anxieties and mysteries of an era where scientific progress clashed with superstition.
