    and in the list, select "Fictional Representations of Romantics" http://www.rc.umd.edu/reference/ficrep/nassr-sf.html

    This is a study of the image of Romanticism in later literature; look at The Volcano Lover by Susan Sontag, based on the life of Sir William Hamilton, an English diplomat: it links up with our study of the rediscovery of Southern Italy (archaeology and geology) and its creation of a new imaginative universe where nature and architecture fuse, which has in turn inspired later fiction

  • Art techniques and visual culture:

    select (at the end of the list) "Links to related sites" and click on "Color Printing in the 19th Century" http://www.lib.udel.edu/ud/spec/exhibits/color/

    this section is useful as well for our classes on "Representation" since it shows the influence of art techniques on culture and modes of vision
