- 摘要註: This innovative book reveals the full extent of electricity's significance in nineteenth- andearly-twentieth-century culture. Ranging across a vast array of materials, Sam Halliday shows how electricity functioned as both a means of representing other things--from love and solidarity to embodiment and temporality--and as an object of representation in its own right. As well as Hawthorne, Melville, Twain and James, the book considers other major American writers such as Whitman, Margaret Fuller and Henry Adams; English writers such as Hardy and Kipling; and agalaxy of scientists and social commentators, including mesmerists, physicians, conspiracy theorists, psychologists and theologians.
