Dickens and the Virtual City: Urban Perception and the Production of Social Space - Palgrave Studies in Nineteenth-Century Writing and Culture
This book explores the aesthetic practices used by Dickens to make the space which we have come to know as the Dickensian City. The city is shown to be an imagined or virtual world but with a serious aim for a serious game: Dickens sets up a workshop for the simulation of real societies and cities.
