Examining work by some of the great intellects of the era--including Dickens, Carlyle, Engels, Hugo, Buret, Disraeli, and de Tocqueville--as well as relative unknowns who were searching for ways to depict new realities, Nochlin draws from a range of sources that include paintings, prints, newspaper illustrations, photography, and a variety of texts: from the account of a day in the life of an eight- year- old mine worker girl to the foundational texts of the field such as Friedrich Engels's \u003cem\u003eThe Condition of the Working Class in England\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Linda Nochlin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 050023969X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780500239698\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Thames \u0026amp; Hudson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/10\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.20w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/29\/2018","brand":"Linda Nochlin","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43980982911231,"sku":"9780500239698","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_2f386bc3-bf2c-4ad3-8a33-d08595726a11.jpg?v=1683253021","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/misre-linda-nochlin-9780500239698","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
