Illustrations, optics, and objects in nineteenth-century literary and visual cultures

"This book explores the encounter between verbal and visual forms through a material aesthetic in which perception is shaped by the tangible qualities of the media. The contributors map a new critical approach in which typography and design play an important role as well as the images represented or evoked in the text"--Provided by publisher.
