Extraordinary Aesthetes critically examines literary and visual artists from England, Ireland, and Scotland whose careers in poetry, fiction, and illustration flourished during the concluding years of the nineteenth century. This collection draws special attention to the exceptional contributions that artists, poets, and novelists made to the cultural world of the late 1880s and 1890s. The essays illuminate a range of established, increasingly acknowledged, and lesser-known figures whose contributions to this brief but remarkably intense cultural period warrant close attention. Such figures include the critically neglected Mabel Dearmer, whose stunning illustrations appear in Evelyn Sharp's radical fairy tales for children. Equally noteworthy is the uncompromising short fiction of Ella D'Arcy, who played a pivotal role in editing the most famous journal of the 1890s, the Yellow Book. The discussion extends to a range of legendary writers, including Max Beerbohm, Oscar Wilde, and W.B. Yeats, whose works are placed in dialogue with authors who gained prominence during this period. Bringing women's writing to the fore, Extraordinary Aesthetes rebalances the achievements of artists and writers during the rapidly transforming cultural world of the fin de siecle."-- $c Provided by publisher. 530 $a Issued also in electronic formats. 650 0 $a Aesthetic movement (Art) $z Great Britain. 650 0 $a Aestheticism (Literature) 650 0 $a Decadence (Literary movement) $z Great Britain. 650 0 $a Women artists $z Great Britain $x History $y 19th century. 650 0 $a Women authors, English $y 19th century. 650 0 $a Women authors, Irish $y 19th century. 650 0 $a Women authors, Scottish $y 19th century. 650 6 $a Esthetisme (Art) $z Grande-Bretagne. 650 6 $a Esthetisme (Litterature) 650 6 $a Decadentisme $z Grande-Bretagne. 650 6 $a Femmes artistes $z Grande-Bretagne $x Histoire $y 19e siecle. 650 6 $a Ecrivaines anglaises $y 19e siecle. 650 6 $a Ecrivaines irlandaises $y 19e siecle. 650 6 $a Ecrivaines ecossaises $y 19e siecle. 650 7 $a Aesthetic movement (Art) $2 fast 650 7 $a Aestheticism (Literature) $2 fast 650 7 $a Decadence (Literary movement) $2 fast 650 7 $a Women artists $2 fast 650 7 $a Women authors, English $2 fast 650 7 $a Women authors, Irish $2 fast 650 7 $a Women authors, Scottish $2 fast 651 7 $a Great Britain $2 fast 648 7 $a 1800-1999 $2 fast 655 7 $a History $2 fast 700 1 $a Bristow, Joseph, $e editor. 776 08 $i Online version: $t Extraordinary aesthetes. $d Toronto ; Buffalo ; London : Published by the University of Toronto Press, in association with the UCLA Center for Seventeenth- and Eighteenth-Century Studies and the William Andrews Clark Memorial Library, 2023 $z 9781487546090 $z 9781487546090 $w (OCoLC)1351435130 830 0 $a UCLA Clark Memorial Library series ; $v 32. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20240619011558.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=52F397022E0111EFA856D47D28ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
