CHRONOLOGY OF THE NINETEENTH-CENTURY PERIODICAL PRESS
Gary Simons
Andrew King is Professor of English Literature and Literary Studies at the University of Greenwich, UK, Alexis Easley is Professor of English at the University of St. Thomas, USA, and John Morton is Senior Lecturer at the University of Greenwich, UK.
The 2017 winner of the Robert and Vineta Colby Scholarly Book Prize."This volume's 30 chapters deal with practically every aspect of periodical research and with the specific topics and audiences the 19th-century periodical press addressed. It also covers matters such as digitization that did not exist or were in early development a generation ago. In addition to the essays, readers will find 50 illustrations, 54 pages of bibliography, and a chronology of the periodical press. This book gives seemingly endless insights into the ways periodicals and newspapers influenced and reflected 19th-century culture. It not only makes readers aware of problems involved in interpreting the history of the press but also offers suggestions for ways of untangling them and points the direction for future research. It will be a valuable resource for readers with interests in almost any aspect of 19th-century Britain. Summing Up: Highly recommended"- J. D. Vann, University of North Texas in CHOICE
