Abstract (en)
The image of the city of Bruges in the work of Fernand Khnopff (paintings, drawings, illustrations) is here reinterpreted in light of writings of the Belgian author Georges Rodenbach, whose influential novel Bruges-la-Morte not only made Bruges renowned as the dead city but created for a generation of Symbolist artists and writers the quintessential image of the city as "soulscape." (Appendices with selected lists of Khnopff's frontispieces and illustrations and of his works inspired by literature).
