This book, first published in 1989, recounts the changing
perceptions of the countryside throughout the nineteenth- and
twentieth-centuries, helping us to understand more fully the issues
that have influenced our view of the ideal countryside, past and
present. Some of the chapters are concerned with ways in which
Victorian artists, poets, and prose writers portrayed the
countryside of their day; others with the landowners' impressive
and costly country houses, and their prettification of 'model'
villages, reflecting fashionable romantic and Gothic styles. This
title will be of interest to students of history.
