《乔治亚晚期英格兰讽刺印刷业》是一本关于1780-1820年出版的英国单页讽刺印刷品的书,讲述了制作这些印刷品的人,以及出售这些印刷品的企业。它探索了这些物品是如何制作的,它们是如何出售的,以及制作的复杂性和出售的必要性如何塑造和限制了这些物品所包含的讽刺内容。它认为,生产、销售和环境是理解格鲁吉亚晚期讽刺版画的关键。毕竟,这些版画大多是在伦敦出版的,因此被编织到大文的商业文化中。由于这座城市和这种文化,许多人参与了将单一的讽刺设计转化为可销售和商业上可行的物品的活动,这些活动是由制造、销售和消费的关系支撑的。因此,忽视这种联系的任何一个部分,都是对佐治亚晚期讽刺印刷品的损害,这些英国艺术最受欢迎的物品,以及它们在佐治亚晚期被神化的故事--一个在佐治亚晚期英格兰讽刺印刷业中发展起来的故事,不是通过这些物品所包含的设计,而是通过这些物品及其制作过程中的设计。
The Business of Satirical Prints in Late-Georgian England is a book about English single sheet satirical prints published 1780-1820, the people who made those prints, and the businesses that sold them. It explores how these objects were made, how they were sold, and how both the complexity of that making and the necessity to sell shaped and constrained the satiric content these objects contained. It argues that production, sale, and environment are crucial to understanding late-Georgian satirical prints. A majority of these prints were, after all, published in London and were therefore woven into the commercial culture of the Great Wen. Because of that city and that culture, the activities of the many individuals involved in transforming a single satirical design into a saleable and commercially viable object were underpinned by a nexus of making, selling, and consumption. And so neglecting any one part of this nexus does a disservice both to the late-Georgian satirical print, these most beloved objects of British art, and to the story of their late-Georgian apotheosis – a story that develops in The Business of Satirical Prints in Late-Georgian England not through the designs these objects contained but rather through those objects and the designs they contained in the making.
