The Victorian Moment in British Popular Culture

There's always been an element in british popular culture for fascination with the east. But that was no be seen during what i just referred to as the sort of shiny phase of the sixties. In august 19 67, when the beetles go to the park lane hilton for an audience with the maharishi. And they later go to rishikash in india, which doesn't go so well. Some of them come home early. They think the maharish is a bit creepy, and they think, basily, he might be a fraud. It's part ofit, again, like the victorianism being part of the sort of cultural climate.
