This new study discusses the visual and verbal city sketches which
proliferated during the 'journalistic revolution' of the 1830s and
1840s. English, French and German/Austrian illustrated serials
illuminate the pivotal position of sketches in the
nineteenth-century culture of knowledge and entertainment. Martina
Lauster demonstrates how, as a dynamic form of cognition, sketches
transformed models of visual and printed media (panorama and
encyclopaedia) and of life science (physiology) into a unique kind
of sociology, presenting a self-critique of the middle class on the
brink of industrial modernity.
