Keats's Poetry as a Common Thread in English and American Pre-Raphaelitism SARAH WOOTTON Contributors Index"ReviewsTobin says that he aimed 'to create a good mix of work from scholars and enthusiastic lay persons,' and the result is a readable and fascinating book which looks at Pre-Raphaelitism from an unusual angle. - The Review of the Pre-Raphaelite Society It is unlikely that there will ever be complete agreement as to the limits of the term Pre-Raphaelitism, but Tobin's book will certainly help the argument to develop. - The Journal of William Morris Studies As promised by its title, this volume delivers a series of multinational perspectives on Pre-Raphaelitism and the movement's shaping influence on the cultures of the British colonies, continental Europe, and North America ... The resulting relationships are strikingly multidimensional; meaning is not only layered in these essays, but also emerges from a diverse array of intersecting horizontal and vertical perspectives. - Victorian Studies These essays offer great range and depth and provide a global perspective that significantly revises our understanding of Pre-Raphaelitism. They demonstrate Pre-Raphaelitism's continuities with a plethora of discourses and phenomena in world literature and art. - Nicholas Frankel, author of Oscar Wilde's Decorated Books This book presents a nice balance of literary and art-historical concerns and a wonderful geographical selection that studies the interchanges of this 'English' movement with a number of countries, including Canada, India, the United States, and many in Europe. A fascinating collection. - James Najarian, author of Victorian Keats: Manliness, Sexuality and Desire Author InformationThomas J.
