| Sommario/riassunto: | 'Conceiving the City' looks at how major writers and artists represented London in fiction, poetry, essays, and art. It shows that late-Victorian fin-de-si�ecle London emerged as a focus for dynamic, explicitly modern art as writers and artists broke with earlier tradition and bent realism into exciting new shapes. |
