It suggests new analytical approaches for its study by offering detailed discussions of a range of representative texts, including Mary Webb's Gone to Earth and Daphne du Maurier's Rebecca. Among the issues and genres Sillars explores are: * Victorian `narrative' paintings * Edwardian fictional magazines * comic strips * illustrated children's stories * the translation of novels into film An insightful and highly informative work, Visualisation in Popular Fiction will be of value to students of literature, cultural studies, visual art and film.
