At Vanity Fair

Auteur: Milne, Kirsty (University of Oxford)
Editeur: Cambridge University Press
In The Pilgrim's Progress, John Bunyan presented Vanity Fair as a place of sin and punishment, but by the nineteenth century it had come to symbolise glamour and worldliness. Kirsty Milne explores the fascinating story of a literary metaphor that has utterly reversed its meaning over three centuries of fiction.
