description: Sir Leslie Stephen (1832 - 1904), cleric turned agnostic, literary critic, historian of ideas, and editor, was in many respects the quintessential Victorian man of letters. In this fine study of his work, Noel Annan clearly establishes Stephen's role in shaping the intellectual and cultural attitudes of the Bloomsbury generation.
