    RUSKIN (ROUTLEDGE REVIVALS)
    GEORGE P. LANDOW
    Ruskin, the great Victorian critics of art and society, had an enormous influence on his age and our own. A highly successful propagandist for the arts, he did much both to popularize high art and to bring it to the masses. A brilliant theorist and practical critics of realism, he also produced the finest nineteenth-century discussions of fantasy, the grotesque, and pictorial s...

    WILLIAM HOLMAN HUNT AND TYPOLOGICAL SYMBOLISM (ROUTLEDGE REVIVALS)
    GEORGE P. LANDOW
    In this study, first published in 1979, Landow contends that Hunt’s version of Pre-Raphaelitism concerned itself primarily with an elaborate system of painterly symbolism rather than with a photographic realism as has been usually supposed. Like Ruskin, Hunt believed that a symbolism based on scriptural typology – the method of finding anticipations of Christ in Hebrew history ...

    ELEGANT JEREMIAHS (ROUTLEDGE REVIVALS)
    GEORGE P. LANDOW
    Labelled "an elegant Jeremiah" by a journalist of his day, the urbane Victorian Matthew Arnold must have received the comparison with the Old Testament prophet uneasily. Writing in the 1970s, Norman Mailer seems to owe nothing to the biblical for his description of a long hot wait to buy a cold drink while reporting on the first voyage to the moon. Yet both Arnold and Mailer, G...

    IMAGES OF CRISIS (ROUTLEDGE REVIVALS)
    GEORGE P. LANDOW
    First published in 1982, Images of Crisis explores the premise that literature and art exploit various images to present culturally prevalent ideas, and thus create their own form of iconology. George Landow shows how the tumultuous history of the past two hundred years has resulted in a plethora of metaphors associated with moments of human crisis. Avalanches and volcanoes eme...

    VICTORIAN TYPES, VICTORIAN SHADOWS (ROUTLEDGE REVIVALS)
    GEORGE P. LANDOW
    The importance of typology in the study of early modern literature has long been accepted, yet students of Victorian culture have paid little attention to it. First published in 1980, this study demonstrates how biblical typology, an apparently arcane interpretative mode, had profound effects on the secular culture of the Victorian age: its art, literature and thought. George L...
