Introduction

de Bolla, Peter; Leask, Nigel; Simpson, David

Pages: 1 –11

[The study of the ‘long eighteenth century’ — usually understood to span the years 1688–1832 — has for some twenty years been shifting its focus and reassessing its touchstones. The change in orientation is perhaps most noticeable for historians of culture. Scholars working in this field have...

Reforming Landscape: Turner and Nottingham

Daniels, Stephen

Pages: 12 –36

[In The Dark Side of the Landscape John Barrell observes that the labourers in Turner’s oil painting Ploughing Up Turnips near Slough (1809) slip between the two traditional ways of relating rustic figures to a landscape, and in doing so appear to us, not as Arcadians, nor automata, but as men....

The Simple Life: Cottages and Gainsborough’s Cottage Doors

Bermingham, Ann

Pages: 37 –62

[In quest of the simple life we find ourselves at the cottage. Embowered by trees, covered in flowering vines, roofed in thatch, and walled with timbers, brick and roughcast, the cottage stands in eighteenth-century thought as the natural domain of domestic peace and happiness. In romantic...

The Other Half of the Landscape: Thomas Heaphy’s Watercolour Nasties

Solkin, David H.

Pages: 63 –96

[In The Dark Side of the Landscape, John Barrell uses The Guardian’s prescription for pastoral poetry by way of introducing his classic study of ‘the constraints — often apparently aesthetic but in fact moral and social — that determined how the poor could, or rather how they could not be...

Chardin at the Edge of Belief: Overlooked Issues of Religion and Dissent in Eighteenth-Century French Painting

Crow, Thomas

Pages: 97 –113

[John Barrell taught a generation to think about British art of the eighteenth century within the interplay of deep assumptions about civic virtue, its carriers and its responsibilities. The Political Theory of Painting told a complex story and one that was new to most of its readers, even those...

The Sabine Women and Lévi-Strauss

Clark, T. J.

Pages: 114 –130

[In a letter Poussin wrote to his patron Paul Fréart de Chantelou in April 1639, instructing him how best to come to terms with the new painting Poussin had sent him — patron and painter were at the start of their long relationship, so basic advice was in order — the following phrase occurs....

‘Love and Madness’: Sentimental Narratives and the Spectacle of Suffering in Late-Eighteenth-Century Romance

Brewer, John

Pages: 131 –147

[On 7 April 1779, a 27-year-old clergyman, James Hackman, shot Martha Ray through the head in front of a large crowd of horrified onlookers, as she stepped into her carriage outside the Covent Garden Theatre. ‘With another pistol he then attempted to shoot himself, but the ball grazing his brow,...

‘A Submission, Sir!’ Who has the Right to Person in Eighteenth-Century Britain?

de Bolla, Peter

Pages: 148 –168

[On 19 February 1747 the actor-manager Thomas Sheridan was tried in the court of Oyer and Terminer for assault and acquitted. Immediately following this case the court heard a suit that Sheridan himself brought against one Edward Kelly, a young man from Galway, and also for assault, and found for...

Suspicious Minds: Spies and Surveillance in Charlotte Smith’s Novels of the 1790s

Guest, Harriet

Pages: 169 –187

[In his influential essay of 1992 on ‘Visualising the Division of Labour’, John Barrell argued that the ‘totalising discourse’ of the division of labour articulates a ‘subject which defines its own partiality even as it denies it’. The subject must claim for itself a viewpoint from which it can...

Wordsworth and Empire — Just Joking

Simpson, David

Pages: 188 –201

[The dynamics of Empire and their presence in Romantic writing have been lately much inspected, and most people probably think they know what Wordsworth thought about them. He did not, one might say, think much about them at all, lining up with a number of other major writers who seem to have...
