They examine the representation, treatment, or discussion of the arts in Victorian literary texts, the interchange between literary and other art forms, the creative dialogue between practices of writing, reading, viewing, and hearing, and analysis of how the arts inform the work of particular literary figures. Those figures include canonical writers such as Dickens, Tennyson, Ruskin, Hawthorne, George Eliot, Swinburne, and Hardy and less well-known writers such as John Addington Symonds, Arthur Symons, and Rosa Newmarch. Walter Pater is an informing presence while Vernon Lee emerges as a major commentator. Containing innovative research by leading critics in the field, this collection makes a substantial contribution to our understanding of the relations between literature and the arts in the Victorian period.
