The history of book illustration is the story of a mechanical process releasing a great flowering of talent, a revolution in which photomechancial methods of reproduction provided a medium for a new scholl of illustrators. This book examines the methods and looks at the illustrators as well as their books describing their markets, training, tehcniques, remuneration and professional and social lives. It includes a chronologically arranged checklist of the illustrated books of over seventy artists, ranging from Aubrey Beardsley, Edmund Dulac, Arthur Rackham, Howard Pyle to the little known John Batten, Vernon Hill, Reginald Birch and Willy Pogány. It also includes contributions made to the genre by female artists as Mabel Lucie Attwell, Gwynedd Hudson, Margaret Tarrant, Millicent Sowerby, Mary Wheelhouse and many others.

Annotated bibliography of the Arthurian legend in modern English-language fiction, not only in literary texts, but in television, music, and art. The legend of Arthur has been a source of fascination for writers and artists in English since the fifteenth century, when Thomas Malory drew together for the first time in English a variety of Arthurian stories from a number of sources to form the Morte Darthur. It increased in popularity during the Victorian era, when after Tennyson's treatment of the legend, not only authors and dramatists, but painters, musicians, and film-makers found a sourceof inspiration in the Arthurian material. This interdisciplinary, annotated bibliography lists the Arthurian legend in modern English-language fiction, from 1500 to 2000, including literary texts, film, television, music, visual art, and games. It will prove an invaluable source of reference for students of literary and visual arts, general readers, collectors, librarians, and cultural historians--indeed, by anyone interested in the history of the waysin which Camelot has figured in post-medieval English-speaking cultures.
