Victorian Photography and Literary Nostalgia

By Helen Groth

This study looks back to the early days of photography, when writers, publishers, and photographers were only beginning to consider the impact of this new way of seeing on their work and lives. Helen Groth demonstrates that, rather than being extraneous to the ongoing concerns of writing Victorian literary history, the early history of photography constitutes a rich part of the cultural history of the mediation and reception of literary texts in the nineteenth century.
