商品簡介
Novelist and literary critic Harvey explores aesthetic links between literature--particularly poetry--and the visual arts. Citing a range of authors and artists, he looks not merely at the linguistic but at the distinctly poetic processes that may operate as people shape, both verbally and through images, the sights they observe and the sights they invent. He covers sight, the mind's eye, and art; Shakespeare pictures; the unequal art of William Blake; satire and sights; Bleak House to Lighthouse: the optics of the novel; metaphor and modernism; and pre-Raphaelites and Shakespeare's women.
