Ten Moderately Light-hearted Victorianist Pet Peeves (in no particular order)

1.  "Victorian novels are so long because authors were paid by the word, right?"
2.  "You study Victorian fiction? You mean like...Jane Austen?"
3. Bookdealer lists a novel first published in 1930 as "Victorian."
4. "Victorian values"
5. Confusing Tim Burton with Lewis Carroll
6. "Those Victorians all hated sex."
7. Endless stories about Jack the Ripper
8. Those naughty piano legs
9. Victorian...France?!
10. "Dickensian"*

*--the adjective, not the TV series, about which this Victorianist has no opinion as of yet
