Ksiazkiewicz, Allison (Author)
The role of sentiment in narratives generated by antiquarians, dilettanti and geologists in late eighteenth-century Britain features as a significant force in the development of the historical sciences. During the fieldwork for and subsequent publication of The Geography and Antiquities of Ithaca (1807), by Sir William Gell (1777-1836), and A Description of the Principal Picturesque Beauties, Antiquities and Geological Phenomena of the Isle of Wight (1816), by his colleague Sir Henry Charles Englefield (c.1752-1822), the role of association and sentiment makes visible the ruins of everyday-type architectures and geological processes, and demonstrates tensions between human-made and natural artefacts.
