Extract

FROM THE BEGINNING OF the nineteenth century to the beginning of the twenty-first, the central issues in writing about the Victorian city have remained the same: how did the Victorians “see” the city? how do “we” see the Victorian city? and how do “we” see the Victorians seeing the city? Is the city knowable? What are the modes of representation of the Victorian city?
