111 focuses upon geologic surveys produced between 1867 and 1879, considering the ways that emerging scientifi c theories informed the pictorial and narrative projects of familiar fi gures such as John Wesley Powell, Clarence King, Th omas Moran, and Timothy O’Sullivan. With the exception of some passing references to Paul Ricoeur and Gérard Genette in the book’s introduction, Johnston opts not to engage in a meaningful way with established narratology, instead grounding the studies in engaging close readings of text and image positioned in respect to other scholarly work on nineteenthcentury landscape art. Th is minor quibble aside, this book provides adept interpretations of illustrated texts with an eye to their signifi cance for concepts such as mobility and settler colonialism. In reading the ways that image and text interact to produce temporal narratives informing frontier and expansionist culture, Johnston amasses an insightful collection of noncanonical print artifacts that off er insight into emerging cultures of aesthetics, travel, and science in the nineteenthcentury West.

第 111 期侧重于 1867 年至 1879 年间进行的地质调查，考虑到新兴科学理论如何影响约翰·韦斯利·鲍威尔、克拉伦斯·金、托马斯·莫兰和蒂莫西·奥沙利文等熟悉人物的图像和叙事项目。除了在本书的介绍中对保罗·利科 (Paul Ricoeur) 和热拉尔·热内特 (Gérard Genette) 的一些过往引用外，约翰斯顿选择不以有意义的方式参与既定的叙事学，而是将研究扎根于仔细阅读与其他学术著作相关的文本和图像关于 19 世纪的风景艺术。撇开小问题不谈，这本书对插图文本进行了巧妙的解释，并着眼于它们对流动性和定居者殖民主义等概念的重要性。在阅读图像和文本相互作用以产生影响前沿和扩张主义文化的时间叙事的方式时，约翰斯顿收集了一系列富有洞察力的非规范印刷品，这些作品提供了对 19 世纪西方新兴的美学、旅行和科学文化的洞察力。Andrew B.
