Examining how recent paintings, sculptures, photographs, installations and films revisit and re-present nineteenth-century technologies, practices and events, the books rich interdisciplinary approach applies literary, media and linguistic theories to its analysis of visual art, alongside in-depth discussions of the Victorian inventions, concepts and narratives that they invoke. The books emphasis on how and why we represent the historical past makes its contribution particularly timely. And by drawing attention to the importance of historiography to the work of these artists, it also unravels the complicated history of History itself. This book will speak to diverse audiences including those interested in art history, visual culture, Victorian and neo-Victorian studies, as well as literature, histories of science and media, postcolonialism, museology, gender studies, postmodernism and the history of ideas. 001484249 588__ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from digital title page (viewed on December 11, 2023). 001484249 650_6 $$aArt et histoire. 001484249 650_6 $$aHistoire dans l'art. 001484249 650_6 $$aArt$$y21e siècle. 001484249 650_0 $$aArt and history.$$0(DLC)sh 85007960 001484249 650_0 $$aHistory in art.$$0(DLC)sh2009006613 001484249 650_0 $$aArt, Modern$$y21st century.$$0(DLC)sh 85008032 001484249 651_0 $$aGreat Britain$$xHistory$$yVictoria, 1837-1901$$xIn art. 001484249 651_6 $$aGrande-Bretagne$$xHistoire$$y1837-1901 (Victoria)$$xDans l'art. 001484249 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001484249 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aElstob, Isobel.$$tReimag(in)ing the Victorians in contemporary art.$$dCham, Switzerland : Palgrave Macmillan, [2023]$$z9783031284939$$w(OCoLC)1370002131 001484249 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aElstob, Isobel.$$tReimag(in)ing the Victorians in contemporary art.$$dCham, Switzerland : Palgrave Macmillan, [2023]$$z9783031284939$$w(OCoLC)1400111930 001484249 852__ $$bebk 001484249 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-28493-9$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001484249 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1484249$$pGLOBAL_SET 001484249 980__ $$aBIB 001484249 980__ $$aEBOOK 001484249 982__ $$aEbook 001484249 983__ $$aOnline 001484249 994__ $$a92$$bISE
