In the course of the nineteenth century, the battlefields of Waterloo and Ypres in Belgium became veritable burial grounds for generations of dead British military, indirectly leading to the most intensive ties between the two countries. By exploring this twofold path, the author uncovers a series of cross-influences and creative similarities within the Belgo-British artistic community, and explores the background against which the British national identity was constructed. Revealing unknown links between some of the most famous artists on both sides of the channel, such as D.G. Rossetti and Jan Van Eyck; Christina Rossetti and Fernand Khnopff; John Millais and Pieter Breughel, and Lewis Carroll and Quentin Massys, the book emphasises an artistic cross-fertilisation that can be found within battlefield literature throughout the nineteenth century, including examples from the likes of William M. Thackeray, Frances Trollope and Charlotte Bront?e. Providing a rich intercultural history of Belgo-British relations after the battle of Waterloo, this interdisciplinary book will appeal to scholars and students researching history, literature, art and cultural studies."--Publisher information. 410 0$aBritain and the World 606 $aArt and war 606 $aCivilization$xHistory 607 $aGreat Britain$xRelations$zBelgium$xHistory$y19th century 607 $aBelgium$xRelations$zGreat Britain$xHistory$y19th century 615 0$aArt and war. 615 0$aCivilization$xHistory. 676 $a704.94935502 700 $aDemoor$b Marysa$0558341 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9910556889303321 996 $aA Cross-Cultural History of Britain and Belgium, 1815-1918$92819555 997 $aUNINA
