The review focuses on the author's attempt to draw an ample and complex portrait of the multiple and contradictory impulses lying underneath Hawthorne’s ambiguous reconfiguration, in The Marble Faun, of his own personal experience of Italy and of Classical Art, and projecting him at the crux of the equally conflicting passage, in Western culture, from late neo-Classicism through full Romanticism and into early Aestheticism.

Abstract

The review focuses on the author's attempt to draw an ample and complex portrait of the multiple and contradictory impulses lying underneath Hawthorne’s ambiguous reconfiguration, in The Marble Faun, of his own personal experience of Italy and of Classical Art, and projecting him at the crux of the equally conflicting passage, in Western culture, from late neo-Classicism through full Romanticism and into early Aestheticism.
