>conceptualise diverse trends and tendencies in the period up to the
>First World War? How do we interpret complex cultural interrelations and
>understand the influential networks in which people operate? How, for
>example, do changing ideas about consumption in both the public and
>private spheres relate to historical constructions of visual pleasure
>and aesthetic experience?
