The ten essays in Literature and the Arts explore the
intermedial plenitude of eighteenth-century English culture,
honoring the memory of James Anderson Winn, whose work demonstrated
how seeing that interplay of the arts and literature was essential
to a full understanding of Restoration and eighteenth-century
English culture. Scenery, machinery, music, dance, and texts
transformed one another, both enriching and complicating generic
distinctions. Artists were alive to the power of the arts to
reflect and shape reality, and their audience was quick to turn to
the arts as performative pleasures and critical lenses through
which to understand a changing world. This collection's eminent
authors discuss estate design, musicalized theater, the visual
spectacle of musical performance, stage machinery and set designs,
the social uses of painting and singing, drama’s reflection of a
transformed military infrastructure, and the arts of memory and of
laughter.
