Product Information
Examines spaces of inner life in eighteenth-century England to shed new light on interiority in literature and visual and material culture. In what kinds of spaces do we become most aware of the thoughts in our own heads? In My Dark Room , Julie Park explores places of solitude and enclosure that gave eighteenth-century subjects closer access to their inner worlds: grottos, writing closets, landscape follies, and the camera obscura, that beguiling "dark room" inside which the outside world in all its motion and color is projected. The camera obscura and its dreamlike projections within it served as a paradigm for the everyday spaces, whether in built environments or in imaginative writing, that generated the fleeting states of interiority eighteenth-century subjects were compelled to experience and inhabit. My Dark Room illuminates the spatial and physical dimensions of inner life in the long eighteenth century by synthesizing material analyses of diverse media, from optical devices and landscape architecture to women's intimate dress, with close readings of literary texts not traditionally considered together, among them Andrew Marvell's country house poem Upon Appleton House , Margaret Cavendish's experimental epistolary work Sociable Letters , Alexander Pope's heroic verse epistle Eloisa to Abelard , and Samuel Richardson's novel Pamela . Park also analyzes letters and diaries, architectural plans, prints, drawings, paintings, and more, drawing our attention to the lively interactions between spaces and psyches in private environments. Park's innovative method of "spatial formalism" reveals how physical settings enable psychic interiors to achieve vitality in lives both real and imagined.

Reviews
Park is a tireless scholar; she clearly loves what she's discovering spirited away in the archives, and her sense of wonder and delight can be contagious., Park animates the camera obscura trope as a perceptual dynamic for which, until now, we've had so few words. She interweaves a material history of the camera obscura with anthropology, media archaeology, phenomenology, architectural history, and literary criticism until it becomes possible to re-envision eighteenth-century literary fiction as a transhistorical and intermedial home for the psyche. Anything but obscure, My Dark Room opens interiors we once assumed were shut, unsettling familiar narratives about the post-Enlightenment mind. Mental and physical enclosures from Pamela's pockets to Pope's grotto to Otranto's papery passages emerge as dynamic sites of interaction with their environments that anticipate today's transmedial aesthetic spaces. This lucidly dreamed study is a feat of the critical imagination to be experienced as well as read. It will be admired and referenced for years to come., My Dark Room explores the ways in which the camera obscura , both materially and conceptually, provided the corridor through which the interior lives of eighteenth-century subjects passed. In a dazzling sequence of chapters Julie Park captures the excitements and tensions that emerged as imaginative private worlds were projected on real geographies and spaces. My Dark Room will unsettle the now very long-standing assumptions about the primacy of fiction and the novel in the construction of eighteenth-century subjectivities, as it makes a compelling case for the subject in space created through interior projections., In a book that takes illumination and insight as its subject, [Park's] meticulous close readings and case studies open up rich possibilities for future work., A beautiful book on the privacies of writing, the rapt silences of the mind's darkened room, lit by rays of the everyday: the habitations of thought that those before Proust conceived. My Dark Room answers to my sensibility; it teaches me who I am and where I come from, providing new coordinates and new darknesses between the points of light., My Dark Room is a wonderful mix of discovery and analysis. It reads the seventeenth and eighteenth-century fascination with the camera obscura as metaphor for the workings of interiority in both mind and art. With an impressive range of historical and philosophical contexts and delightful close readings of architectural and literary works, Park reveals the camera obscura modelling the spatial relationship between mind, landscape, and narrative. From country-house poems to gothic novels, from writing-closets to grottoes, pockets, enclosures, and cottages, Park herself models the 'spatial formalism' of the experience of interiors., Park interweaves a material history of the camera obscura with anthropology, media archaeology, phenomenology, architectural history, and literary criticism until it becomes possible to re-envision eighteenth-century literary fiction as a transhistorical and intermedial home for the psyche. Anything but obscure, My Dark Room opens interiors we once assumed were shut, unsettling familiar narratives about the post-Enlightenment mind.

In a dazzling sequence of chapters Julie Park captures the excitements and tensions that emerged as imaginative private worlds were projected on real geographies and spaces and, correspondingly, as real spaces determined the structures of interior lives. My Dark Room will unsettle the now very long-standing assumptions about the primacy of fiction and the novel in the construction of eighteenth-century subjectivities, as it makes a compelling case for the subject in space created not only through interior imaginative projections but also exterior realizations of those projections.
