内容説明

This study offers a survey of the changing depiction of the denizens of London's streets-mechanic preachers, prostitutes, milkmaids, tinkers, beggars, and all manner of hawkers-as these were represented in "Cries" produced between 1580 and 1900. It draws on the history of art, literature, and society to analyse the meaning of the "Cries" in the culture of London over three centuries, and studies "Cries" as a genre with its own self-sustaining life - the life of art - but also reads the genre in a social and cultural historical context.

目次

  • Picturing the London outcast
  • Broadsheet Cries and British commerce
  • Tailoring the urban poor - the ensembles of Laroon and Amigoni
  • From representation to ridicule - Hogarth and the London Cries
  • Retailoring the lower orders - Ensembles from 1740 to 1821
  • Hawkers infantalized - Cries as illustrated books
  • Pastoral and antipastoral in the London Cries.
