Bøker av Juliet McMaster

In this original and revealing study of the major novels, Juliet McMaster contends that Thackery is a consummate artist and a highly sophisticated ironist, exploiting to the full the potential of the various personae he adopts, and introducing ambiguity deliberately.

In James Clarke Hook Juliet McMaster tracks the life and career of the brilliant yet underappreciated Victorian painter, from his rigorous training at the Royal Academy Schools, his travelling studentship in Florence and Venice, and his work as a historical painter, to the discovery of his métier as an inspired painter of contemporary rural and coastal scenes.
