Conceptions of Reality: Prints in Nineteenth-Century Europe
In nineteenth-century urban Europe prints revolutionized the way people communicated information and understood their city, country, and world. The medium not only allowed a wider audience distribution but it also enabled the public to scrutinize their government, analyze classes, and create identifiable visual stereotypes. Today we use these prints to gain insight into different conceptions of the time and to aid us in our understanding of the complicated social dynamics that are not typically portrayed in the fine arts of the time. This panel invites papers that investigate how prints constructed reality, conceptualized the city, portrayed
types of people, and conveyed information through formal and stylistic choices. Proposals that use interdisciplinary research methods are encouraged and welcome.
