Haunted museum : longing, travel, and the art-romance tradition

Jonah Siegel (Author)
Less about place than about the haunting forms of inspiration, more about the desire to arrive than about arrival, 'The Haunted Museum' is an ambitious study of the influential literary fantasy of Italy represented in a tradition including the works of Goethe, Byron, Hawthorne, Freud & Mann
