It applies an innovative mix of approaches - book history, Enlightenment and twentieth-century philosophy, visual studies, and material analyses of fashions in books and in dress - to specific editions of Alexander Pope, Mary Robinson and Lord Byron. In its material analyses of these books, this study looks closely at bindings, letterforms, engravings, newspaper advertisements, correspondence, and other ephemera. In its theoretical approaches, it takes up the interventions of Locke and Kant in connection with the visual theories of Richardson, Hogarth, and Reynolds. These investigations point ultimately to a profound connection between Enlightenment formulations of subjectivity, genius, and fashion, a link that is relevant to the construction of celebrity in our own cultural moment."-- |cProvided by publisher. 650 0 English literature |y18th century |xHistory and criticism. |0http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008102755 650 0 Popular culture and literature |zGreat Britain |xHistory |y18th century. 650 0 Book design |zGreat Britain |xHistory |y18th century. 650 0 Enlightenment |zGreat Britain. |0http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008119662 655 7 Essays. |2lcgft |0http://id.loc.gov/authorities/genreForms/gf2014026094 830 0 Palgrave studies in the Enlightenment, romanticism and cultures of print 852 0 |bf |hPR442 |i.E33 2016 902 kl |bs |6a |7m |dv |f1 |e20170313 904 kl |ba |hm |cb |e20170313 914 (OCoLC)ocn950953183 |bOCoLC |cmatch |d20240508 |eprocessed |f950953183
