pbiMisrecognitionsibb mounts a vigorous defense of the labyrinthine plotting of Victorian novels, notorious for their implausible concluding revelations and coincidences.b Critics have long decried these recognition scenes--the reunions and retroactive discoveries of identity that too conveniently bring the story to a close--as regrettable contrivances. Ben Parker counters this view by showing how Victorian recognition scenes offer a critique of the social and economic misrecognitions at work in nineteenth-century capitalism. ppThrough a meticulous analysis of novels by Charles Dickens, Anthony Trollope, and Henry James, as well as Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes stories, iMisrecognitionsi tracks how the Victorian novel translates the financialized abstractions of capital into dramas of buried secrets and disguised relations. Drawing on Marx's account of commodity fetishism and reification, iMisrecognitionsi contends that, by configuring capital as an enigma to be unveiled, Victorian recognition scenes dramatize the inversions of agency and temporality that are repressed in capitalist production. In plotting capital as an agent of opacity and misdirection, Victorian novels and their characteristic dialectic of illusion and illumination reveal the plot hole in capitalism itself.p
