"Few areas of human endeavor and adventure have such an extensive literature as does mountaineering -- perhaps because the activity itself is so diverse, ranging from gymnastic feats of modern rock climbers through alpinism to Himalayan conquests and exploration. Even before Edward Whymper climbed the Matterhorn in 1865 and wrote the celebrated Scrambles in the Alps, mountaineers had felt compelled to record their adventures and their sense of wonder at the mountain world. In recent years the literature has expanded considerably, to account for the phenomenal growth of mountain activities. Expeditions are now commonplace, and the great mountain ranges are no longer beyond the reach of the average climber. This extensive bibliography describes works on mountaineering published in the English language since 1744. But it's far more than a dry catalog of books, as author Neate gives notes which help the reader assess as book's reliability and significance. An indispensable reference for the active climber, would-be explorer and bibliophile alike." --

The Victorian Mind's Eye: Reading Literature in an Age of Illustration The Victorians lived in an age of illustration. In a matter of decades, words and images had become enmeshed and entangled, printed alongside each other in a spectacular array of printed forms. The exponential growth of illustration not only radically changed literature, but also changed the way that literature was read. This book offers a major conceptualisation of the difference that pictures made to the reading of words. Analysing an extensive range of illustrated material and drawing on the accounts of Victorian readers, reviewers, authors, artists, and psychologists, the book describes how the Victorians characterised the effects of illustration, and how illustrations, in turn, elicited and anticipated responses from their readers. What emerges from these sources is the notion of a distinct mode of reading that determined readers' material and mental engagements with illustrated literature. The presence of images on the page was said to impact on whether readers created images in their mind as they read. Illustrations generated feelings of pleasure or displeasure; they determined what was read first, what was recalled, and what was etched in the memory. By peering into the recesses of the mind's eye, this book identifies the cognitive mechanisms and cultural politics that were central to how the Victorians described their reading of illustrated literature. It suggests the significance of these ideas of reading for understanding the place of illustration in Victorian culture and the relation between words, pictures, and historical values and meanings. Illustration was fundamental to how the Victorians read, and to how we read the Victorians.
