The emblem is a discursive practice that promises to stabilize language in the face of doubt, making it especially interesting as a site of conflicting responses to Victorian crises of representation. Through analyses of works by the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, Christina Rossetti, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, Gerard Manley Hopkins, A.C. Swinburne, and William Morris, Emblematic Strategies examines the Pre-Raphaelite movement?s common goal of conveying ?truth? while highlighting differences in its adherents? approaches to that task. 410 0$aCosterus ;$vVolume 227. 606 $aEnglish poetry$y19th century$xHistory and criticism$xTheory, etc 615 0$aEnglish poetry$xHistory and criticism$xTheory, etc. 676 $a821.809 700 $aMcAlpine$b Heather$01664688 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910813099603321 996 $aEmblematic strategies in Pre-Raphaelite literature$94022864 997 $aUNINA
