The Edinburgh Companion to Charles Dickens and the Arts : Edinburgh University Press : 9781474441643 : 1474441645 : 31 May 2024 : Explores Dickens's rich and complex relationships with a myriad of art forms and the far-reaching resonance of his works across the Arts overall. This volume reassesses Dickens's prescient philosophy of art, both through a historical and a present-day lens and in the context of debates about the cultural value of the Arts. Across thirty-three original essays, it outlines the ways in which Dickens broke down oppositions between high and low art, money and the aesthetic, the extraordinary and the ordinary, and art for its own sake and the social good.
