The Cambridge History of the Gothic: Volume 2, Gothic in the Nineteenth Century
Author: Catherine SpoonerPublisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1108678408
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 1014
Book Description
This second volume of The Cambridge History of the Gothic provides a rigorous account of the Gothic in British, American and Continental European culture, from the Romantic period through to the Victorian fin de siècle. Here, leading scholars in the fields of literature, theatre, architecture and the history of science and popular entertainment explore the Gothic in its numerous interdisciplinary forms and guises, as well as across a range of different international contexts. As much a cultural history of the Gothic in this period as an account of the ways in which the Gothic mode has participated in the formative historical events of modernity, the volume offers fresh perspectives on familiar themes while also drawing new critical attention to a range of hitherto overlooked concerns. From Romanticism, to Penny Bloods, Dickens and even the railway system, the volume provides a compelling and comprehensive study of nineteenth-century Gothic culture.
Dickens and the Unreal City
Author: K. SmithPublisher: Springer
ISBN: 0230583253
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
Dickens's London often acts as a complex symbol, composed of numerous sub-symbols, such as crowd, river, railway networks and police systems. This book is particularly interested in how Dickens's treatment of the city allows him to re-examine traditional Christian discourses on the issues of revelation, renunciation and regeneration.
