The Victorian Period, beginning in 1837 and ending in 1901, is a period when British
Imperial develops and expands with an unprecedented speed. This period brings England- the first
industrialized country in the world- to the highest level of develeopment. During this period, rural
based life styles change into urban based economy and modern life which results in increase in
wealth. Cities experience rapid growth, life styles of people differentiate, the landscape changes
and massive production replaces agricultural production. Despite the prosperity and optimism in
this period, some difficulties associated with the rapid industrialization emerge. Unemployment,
poverty and competitive desire for social security appear causing restlessness among the members
of the British society. The authors of this period from Charles Dickens to Elizabeth Gaskel and
Anthony Trollope handle the issues of Victorian period and keep a critical eye on the matters
changing the structure of the community. The aim of his study is to reflect the effects of rapid
industrialization through Anthony Trollope’s view. In his novel titled The Way We Live Now he
presents the introduction of materaliasm characterized by a ‘’great financier’’ and the leakage ofdishonesty- as the financial power- into economical, religious, social and political institutes of
British Community is analyzed. This study, displays the excessive interest of both the institutes
and individuals to dishonesty at the same time proves that financial benefits result in frustration.
Additionally, the presentation of the cost of playing with others’ feelings and the significance of
love and moral values are handled.
