With chapters devoted to the ways in which aesthetic and decadent writers such as Walter Pater and Oscar Wilde built upon and challenged Ruskin's ideas, the book links the late Dickens to the early modernism of Henry James. The Aesthetics of Space in Nineteenth-Century British Literature gives a vibrant vision of what an aesthetically sensitive treatment of these spaces looked like during the period. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 0 $a Prologue: Joris-Karl Huysmans, or 'after Dickens' -- Introduction: The spatial turn -- John Ruskin: towards a theoretics of space -- Charles Dickens: after realism -- Walter Pater: towards an aesthetics of space -- Oscar Wilde: cosmopolitan space -- Henry James: Modern space -- Conclusion: Unreal cities -- towards modernism. 648 7 $a 1800-1899 $2 fast 650 0 $a Aestheticism (Literature) 650 0 $a Space in literature. 650 0 $a English literature $y 19th century $x History and criticism. 650 7 $a Aestheticism (Literature) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00798701 650 7 $a English literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00911989 650 7 $a Space in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01904752 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411635 830 0 $a Edinburgh critical studies in Victorian culture 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20240320012020.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=4261B528E67F11EE94C7D61345ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
