Abstract
This essay offers an overview of scholarly research conducted on late-Victorian bestselling author Marie Corelli over the past few decades. It first traces the various phases of scholarly interest in this popular writer: from biography to bibliography and ‘rediscovery’, to the ‘publishing phenomenon’ and zeitgeist criticism of the past 10 years. In a second step the essay then offers a personal assessment of where Corelli scholarship might be going, or indeed should be going, in the future.
