Sketches Of The Nineteenth Century by M. Lauster, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters

This book discusses the visual and verbal city sketches which proliferated during the 'journalistic revolution' of the 1830s and 1840s. It shows how sketches transformed models of visual and printed media and of life science into a unique kind of sociology, presenting a self-critique of the middle class on the brink of industrial modernity. | Sketches Of The Nineteenth Century by M.
