Fashioning Authorship inthe Long Eighteenth Century examines this cultural trope ofgenius-as-fashionista by applying an innovative mix of approaches—bookhistory, Enlightenment and twentieth-century philosophy, visual studies,and material analyses of fashions in books and in dress—to specificeditions of Alexander Pope, Mary Robinson and Lord Byron. In itsmaterial analyses of these books, Fashioning Authorship looks closely atbindings, letterforms, engravings, newspaper advertisements,correspondence, and other ephemera. In its theoretical approaches, ittakes up the interventions of Locke and Kant in connection with thevisual theories of Richardson, Hogarth, and Reynolds. Theseinvestigations point ultimately to a profound connection betweenEnlightenment formulations of subjectivity, genius, and fashion, a linkthat is relevant to the construction of celebrity in our own culturalmoment.. . . | 出版日期 | Book 2016 | 关键词 | Visual culture; Celebrity; Book history; Material history; Eighteenth-century poetry; Pope; Byron; Kant; Loc | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1057/978-1-137-51826-2 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-137-51826-2Series ISSN 2634-6516 Series E-ISSN 2634-6524 | issn_series | 2634-6516 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s) 2016 |
