- W4320074491 abstract "This chapter attends to materiality, to bodies, to surfaces, and to acknowledgment rather than knowledge. Besant’s Liberalism is Associationism in action. To make this claim, the chapter focuses on how physical objects mediate between bodies in <italic>Children of Gibeon</italic>. The closer an object gets to the surface, the more it brings bodies together. One of the core preoccupations of <italic>Children of Gibeon</italic> is the degree to which the affective gravity of objects moulds social relations. In the East End, wealthy heiress Valentine seeks to connect with her working-class sisters through the objects around them. Initially, she relies on these objects as fetishes that metaphorise the affects and bodies around her. But her politics evolve as she begins to move away from mere representation. Instead, she learns an ethics of personal care that acknowledges workers rather than claims to know them. This the value of surface reading as a mode of inquiry, for it offers a route to address the material conditions of lived experience both at a systematic level and at the level of individuals and their feelings." @default.
