Bedside Seductions: Nursing and the Victorian Imagination, 1830-1880 Tapa dura - 1997 - 1st Edición

de Catherine Judd


Primera línea

IN HIS VITRIOLIC ESSAY OF 1880, Fiction-Fair and Foul, John Ruskin meditates on the surfeit of death and illness in the Victorian novel, claiming that detailed, clinical depictions of morbidity are the hallmarks of the genre: "[the modern reader can] gather into one Caina of gelid putrescence the entire product of modern infidel imagination, amusing itself with destruction of the body, and busying itself with aberration of the mind..." (166).
