Willis charts the characterization of vision through four organizing principles - small, large, past and future - to survey Victorian conceptions of what vision was. He then explores how this Victorian vision influenced twentieth-century ways of seeing, when anxieties over visual 'truth' became entwined with modernist rejections of objectivity. 410 0$aScience and culture in the nineteenth century ;$vno. 15. 517 3 $aVision, Science & Literature, 1870-1920 606 $aVision$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aVision$xSocial aspects$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aVision$xPhilosophy$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aLiterature and science$xHistory$y19th century 615 0$aVision$xHistory 615 0$aVision$xSocial aspects$xHistory 615 0$aVision$xPhilosophy$xHistory 615 0$aLiterature and science$xHistory 676 $a612.8409034 700 $aWillis$b Martin$f1971-$01163524 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910781876703321 996 $aVision, science, and literature, 1870-1920$93714946 997 $aUNINA
