Dickens's London

Perception, Subjectivity and Phenomenal Urban Multiplicity

Beschreibung

Suggests that in their representations of London - its streets, buildings, public institutions, domestic residences, rooms and phenomena that constitute such space - Dickens' novels and journalism can be seen as forerunners of urban and material phenomenology. This book presents a major reassessment of Dickens' writing on the city.
