Traffic in Obscenity from Byron to Beardsley
by Colligan Colette Dr (9780230003439)

This book is a study of obscene print culture in Nineteenth-century Britain. Colette Colligan argues that Nineteenth-century obscenity was caught up in the global cultural traffic of print technology, international trade and exoticism. Her analysis of select canonical and non-canonical publications reveals that obscenity intersected majority and minority culture, circulated from the farthest reaches of empire back to the metropolis, searched out new print and visual media, and built commercial and fantasmatic global networks for its continuation and survival.
