| Summary | "Cartoons by Sir John Tenniel, Selected from the Pages of 'Punch'" by John Tenniel is a collection of political cartoons that were originally published over a period of fifty years in "Punch," a British humorous magazine. This book captures the evolution of British society and politics during the Victorian era through humor and satire, showcasing Tenniel's artistic and narrative talents. The selection spans from the early 1850s to the onset of the 20th century, making it a rich historical commentary of its time period. The book features a series of carefully selected cartoons, each paired with brief contextual notes that provide insight into the events and sentiments of the era. Tenniel critiques various social issues, political events, and notable figures, making a bold statement on the nature of British imperialism, domestic policies, and international relations. Through iconic imagery, such as the British Lion and the Russian Bear, the illustrations tackle themes ranging from the Great Exhibition of 1851 to the complexities of the Boer War. Readers will find that Tenniel's work not only entertains but also encourages reflection on the political landscape of the time. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
