Conjuring the Real: The Role of Architecture in Eighteenth- and Nineteenth-Century Fiction
Rumiko Handa
In recent years a number of blockbuster films have used historically significant buildings as filming locations because buildings can concretely bring a former era or fictional world closer to contemporary viewers. Conjuring the Real traces the genealogy of this representational role of architecture, going back through the history of film and then further in literature, art, and theatre.
