Series Statement:
Edinburgh companions to literature and the humanities
Content:
From the birth of the museum to the explosion of mass-produced illustrated books, the Romantic period (c. 1770-1840) was a moment of rapid change and fruitful experimentation in the fields of art and literature alike. New advances in print production encouraged a wider range of readers to engage with literary forms that opened a path into the once aristocratic field of the visual arts. This companion captures the way recent engagements with visual studies have reshaped how we approach and understand the boundaries between print and visual culture in the period.
