Download or read book The Routledge Handbook to Nineteenth Century British Periodicals and Newspapers written by Andrew King and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-09-01 with total page 637 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 2017 winner of the Robert and Vineta Colby Scholarly Book Prize Providing a comprehensive, interdisciplinary examination of scholarship on nineteenth-century British periodicals, this volume surveys the current state of research and offers researchers an in-depth examination of contemporary methodologies. The impact of digital media and archives on the field informs all discussions of the print archive. Contributors illustrate their arguments with examples and contextualize their topics within broader areas of study, while also reflecting on how the study of periodicals may evolve in the future. The Handbook will serve as a valuable resource for scholars and students of nineteenth-century culture who are interested in issues of cultural formation, transformation, and transmission in a developing industrial and globalizing age, as well as those whose research focuses on the bibliographical and the micro case study. In addition to rendering a comprehensive review and critique of current research on nineteenth-century British periodicals, the Handbook suggests new avenues for research in the twenty-first century. "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

Download or read book British Short Fiction in the Nineteenth Century written by Wendell V. Harris and published by . This book was released on 1979-08 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The nineteenth century was one of the golden ages of English prose, as authors and publishers responded to the interests of an expanded reading public. Periodicals and annual gift books regularly offered short fiction by writers such as Sheridan Le Fanu, William Carleton, and "Baron Corvo," but the wealth and variety of these stories has been largely neglected in the twentieth century., In this sorely needed study, Wendell Harris surveys and evaluates the body of nineteenth-century British short fiction; he restores some forgotten authors to their rightful positions in literary history, and he provides a context for the shorter works of well-known novelists like H. G. Wells and Sir Edward Bulwer Lytton. Pointing out that the true short story did not emerge until near the end of the century, Harris approaches the shorter forms on their own terms, identifying important sub-groupings, analyzing representative or intrinsically important individual works, and suggesting previously overlooked patterns of influence. In addition to chapters devoted to the most significant trends and sub-genres, there is an extensive and detailed bibliographic appendix designed to guide the researcher or student through the maze of volumes in which the tales and stories may now be found. It includes listings of the contents of individual volumes and indicates the most useful published bibliographies. This book enriches the history of nineteenth-century British literature; it will be invaluable to both professionals and students of the period.

Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of the Victorian Novel written by Lisa Rodensky and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2013-07-11 with total page 2484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Much has been written about the Victorian novel, and for good reason. The cultural power it exerted (and, to some extent, still exerts) is beyond question. The Oxford Handbook of the Victorian Novel contributes substantially to this thriving scholarly field by offering new approaches to familiar topics (the novel and science, the Victorian Bildungroman) as well as essays on topics often overlooked (the novel and classics, the novel and the OED, the novel, and allusion). Manifesting the increasing interdisciplinarity of Victorian studies, its essays situate the novel within a complex network of relations (among, for instance, readers, editors, reviewers, and the novelists themselves; or among different cultural pressures - the religious, the commercial, the legal). The handbook's essays also build on recent bibliographic work of remarkable scope and detail, responding to the growing attention to print culture. With a detailed introduction and 36 newly commissioned chapters by leading and emerging scholars -- beginning with Peter Garside's examination of the early nineteenth-century novel and ending with two essays proposing the 'last Victorian novel' -- the handbook attends to the major themes in Victorian scholarship while at the same time creating new possibilities for further research. Balancing breadth and depth, the clearly-written, nonjargon -laden essays provide readers with overviews as well as original scholarship, an approach which will serve advanced undergraduates, graduate students, and established scholars. As the Victorians get further away from us, our versions of their culture and its novel inevitably change; this Handbook offers fresh explorations of the novel that teach us about this genre, its culture, and, by extension, our own.
