{"product_id":"9780571354115","title":"Words \u0026 Pictures : Writers, Artists and a Peculiarly British Tradition by Jenny Uglow","description":"As children, learning to read, we look first at the illustrations - but how do these tell their stories differently to the words? Words \u0026amp; Pictures explores this question through three encounters between writers and artists. It looks at how artists have responded to two great, contrasting works, Paradise Lost and Pilgrim's Progress; at Hogarth and Fielding, great innovators, sharing common aims; and at Wordsworth and Bewick, a poet and engraver, both working separately, but both imbued with the spirit of their age. A brief coda turns to a fourth relationship: writers and artists who collaborate from the start, like Dickens and Phiz, and Lewis Carroll and Tenniel. Sometimes amusing, sometimes moving, this is a book to pore over and enjoy.  The visions it considers link daily life to the universal, the passionate and the sublime.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback \/ softback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56291942728053,"sku":"9780571354115","price":10.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9780571354115.jpg?v=1762743772","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9780571354115","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
