This book explores diverse signifying processes of objects embedded with paradigmatic class discourses and various subjective situations derived from those signifying objects within social and cultural contexts in Sarah Waters’ novels. Sarah Waters, the British contemporary novelist, is best known for her novels set in Victorian society and featuring lesbian protago¬nists. Waters’ criticism on the underlying indeterminacy between class imagination and class reality constructed as the ostensible solidification of social ladders in Victorian society is pervasive and profound although her works are conventionally categorized as historical fictions or lesbian novels. Employing critical concepts concerning objects and things, this book proves Waters’ figurative particularities and heterogeneities of objects may contribute to an innovative scope of a materialisation of class and a significant influence upon contemporary material culture studies.
