S. Mill, De Quincy, Ruskin, Arnold, Pater, and Wilde, Jason Camlot provides an important context for the nineteenth-century critic's changing ideas about style, rhetoric, and technologies of communication. In particular, Camlot contributes to our understanding of how new print media affected the Romantic and Victorian critic's sense of self, as he elaborates the ways nineteenth-century critics used their own essays on rhetoric and stylistics to speculate about the changing conditions for the production and reception of ideas and the formulation of authorial character. Camlot argues that the early 1830s mark the moment when a previously coherent tradition of pragmatic rhetoric was fragmented and redistributed into the diverse, localized sites of an emerging periodicals market. Publishing venues for writers multiplied at midcentury, establishing a new stylistic norm for criticism-one that affirmed style as the manifestation of English discipline and objectivity. The figure of the professional critic soon subsumed the authority of the polyglot intellectual, and the later decades of the nineteenth century brought about a debate on aesthetics and criticism that set ideals of Saxon-rooted 'virile' style against more culturally inclusive theories of expression."--Provided by publisher. 410 0$aNineteenth century (Aldershot, England) 517 3 $aStyle and the 19th-century British critic 606 $aEnglish prose literature$y19th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aCriticism$zGreat Britain$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aPeriodicals$xPublishing$zGreat Britain$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aEnglish language$y19th century$xRhetoric 606 $aEnglish language$y19th century$xStyle 606 $aLiterary style$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aMannerism (Literature) 615 0$aEnglish prose literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aCriticism$xHistory 615 0$aPeriodicals$xPublishing$xHistory 615 0$aEnglish language$xRhetoric. 615 0$aEnglish language$xStyle. 615 0$aLiterary style$xHistory 615 0$aMannerism (Literature) 676 $a828/.80809 700 $aCamlot$b Jason$f1967-$01872766 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910966251503321 996 $aStyle and the nineteenth-century British critic$94482556 997 $aUNINA
