- Samenvatting:
- For Oscar Wilde, the critic was a creative artist. In the illustrated books produced in the decade Oscar Wilde dominated, the artist was also a critic, creating an interpretive visual text to be read along with the verbal text. Since illustrated first editions were produced in unprecedented numbers in the 1890s, bitextual art becale the period's predominant textual form, in texts raging from élite belles-lettres to popular mass-market books. Despite this historical fact, Victorian scholarship persists in representing the period's works divorced from their enframing textual 'other'.
