Eduncle Best Answer
Venice held an unusual place in the Victorian imagination. In nineteenth-century Britain, Venice was widely documented. It was the subject of sustained inspection both as a textual and a physical space. This article traces a textual dialogue between three key voices in the representation of Venice to the British public in mid-nineteenth century. John Murray’s ubiquitous series Handbooks for Travellers in Northern Italy (1842-60) is analysed to set John Ruskin’s The Stones of Venice (1851-53) and Charles Dickens’s Pictures of Italy (1846) in context. A textual and generic dialogue between Murray, Ruskin, and Dickens is traced, showing how each writer used Venice as a site through which to imagine and re-imagine the conditions of the domestic perception of a foreign place. In different ways, Dickens and Ruskin react to the cultural authority held by the Murray guidebooks.
