Recent years have seen a wealth of new scholarship on the history
of photography, cinema, digital media, and video games, yet less
attention has been devoted to earlier forms of visual culture. The
nineteenth century witnessed a dramatic proliferation of new
technologies, devices, and print processes, which provided growing
audiences with access to more visual material than ever before.
This volume brings together the best aspects of interdisciplinary
scholarship to enhance our understanding of the production,
dissemination, and consumption of visual media prior to the
predominance of photographic reproduction. By setting these
examples against the backdrop of demographic, educational,
political, commercial, scientific, and industrial shifts in Central
Europe, these essays reveal the diverse ways that innovation in
visual culture affected literature, philosophy, journalism, the
history of perception, exhibition culture, and the representation
of nature and human life in both print and material culture in
local, national, transnational, and global contexts.
