This is the first modern critical study of Thomas Hood, the popular and influential nineteenthcentury poet, editor, cartoonist and voice of social protest. Acclaimed by Dickens, the Brownings and the Rossettis, Hoods quirky, diverse output bridges the years between 1820 and 1845 and offers fascinating insights for Romanticists and Victorianists alike.Lodges timely book explores the relationship between Hoods playfulness, his liberal politics, and contemporary cultural debate about labour and recreation, literary materiality and urban consumption.Each chapter examines something distinctive of interdisciplinary interest, including the early nineteenthcentury print culture into which Hood was born; the traditional, urban and political ramifications of the grotesque art and literature aesthetic; the cultural politics of Hoods trademark puns; theatre, leisure and the labour question.Lively and accessible, this book will appeal to scholars of nineteenthcentury English Literature, Visual Arts and Cultural Studies.
