I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'those providing rosy depictions' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot judge whether it can be defined by this definition.

'serialised works' is the wordplay.
'works' indicates an anagram (work can mean to twist or convulse).
'serialised' is an anagram of 'IDEALISERS'.
