Literary Illumination examines the relationship
between literature and artificial illumination,
demonstrating that developments of lighting
technology during the nineteenth century definitively
altered the treatment of light as symbol, metaphor
and textual motif Correspondingly, the book also
engages with the changing nature of darkness, and
how the influence of artificial light altered both public
perceptions of, and behaviour within, darkness, as
well as examining literary chiaroscuros. Within each
of four main chapters dedicated to the analysis of
a single dominant light source in the long nineteenth-
century - firelight, candlelight, gaslight, and electric
light - the author considers the phenomenological
properties of the light sources, and where their
presence would be felt most strongly in the
nineteenth century, before collating a corpus
of texts for each light source and environment.
