Late nineteenthcentury Britain experienced an unprecedented explosion of visual print culture and a simultaneous rise in literacy across social classes. New printing technologies facilitated quick and cheap dissemination of imagesillustrated books, periodicals, cartoons, comics, and ephemerato a mass readership. This Victorian visual turn prefigured the presentday impact of the Internet on how images are produced and shared, both driving and reflecting the visual culture of its time.From this starting point, Drawing on the Victorians sets out to explore the relationship between Victorian graphic texts and todays steampunk, manga, and other neoVictorian genres that emulate and reinterpret their predecessors. NeoVictorianism is a flourishing worldwide phenomenon, but one whose relationship with the texts from which it takes its inspiration remains underexplored.In this collection, scholars from literary studies, cultural studies, and art history consider contemporary worksAlan Moores League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Moto Naokos Lady Victorian, and Edward Goreys Gashlycrumb Tinies, among othersalongside their antecedents, from Punchs 1897 Jubilee issue to Alice in Wonderland and more. They build on previous work on neoVictorianism to affirm that the past not only influences but converses with the present.Contributors: Christine Ferguson, Kate Flint, Anna Maria Jones, Linda K.
