Download or read book Mastering the Marketplace written by Anne O'Neil-Henry and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2017 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mastering the Marketplace examines the origins of modern mass-media culture through developments in the new literary marketplace of nineteenth-century France and how literature itself reveals the broader social and material conditions in which it is produced. Anne O'Neil-Henry examines how French authors of the nineteenth century navigated the growing publishing and marketing industry, as well as the dramatic rise in literacy rates, libraries, reading rooms, literary journals, political newspapers, and the advent of the serial novel. O'Neil-Henry places the work of canonical author Honoré de Balzac alongside then-popular writers such as Paul de Kock and Eugène Sue, acknowledging the importance of "low" authors in the wider literary tradition. By reading literary texts alongside associated advertisements, book reviews, publication histories, sales tactics, and promotional tools, O'Neil-Henry presents a nuanced picture of the relationship between "high" and "low" literature, one in which critics and authors alike grappled with the common problem of commercial versus cultural capital. Through new literary readings and original archival research from holdings in the United States and France, O'Neil-Henry revises existing understandings of a crucial moment in the development of industrialized culture. In the process, she discloses links between this formative period and our own, in which mobile electronic devices, internet-based bookstores, and massive publishing conglomerates alter--once again--the way literature is written, sold, and read.

Download or read book Choosing the Future written by Karen Mossberger and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2021 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book presents the first conclusive evidence that broadband adoption in the population is linked to economic growth and prosperity, in counties and metros, whether urban, suburban or rural. Public policy, including the National Broadband Plan (FCC 2010), has been premised on the expectation that broadband use fosters economic opportunity for communities. The quote from Commissioner Rosenworcel at the beginning of this chapter demonstrates the significance of broadband for public policy, beyond a utility to be regulated. Until now, however, evidence for assumptions about the benefits of broadband adoption has been lacking because of a scarcity of reliable data over time. Measuring broadband subscriptions rather than deployment is critical because of what has been called the "subscription gap" (Tomer and Shivaram 2017) - the difference between broadband availability and the reality of those who can afford it and have the ability to use it. In this chapter we review the findings throughout the book, discuss place-based barriers in communities, and implications for public policy"--

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I'm sure we can all agree that people drive you crazy sometimes. Though we all have similarities, we are by nature quite different. We inherit our own generational quirks, a mixing pot of emotions and hereditary habits. I can honestly say amid all our differences and shortcomings as human beings, I've had a certain love and care for people. It breaks my heart to see the pain in others' lives. I'm sure we can also agree on the fact that there's a lot of pain out there in the world. Darkness has a tight grip on our culture; it's time we take up the light and say, "Not anymore." This book is meant to bring light to this darkness that's consuming our culture. It's going to stir up some dust, make you curious, and maybe a little angry. Extinguish all resentment. Push it out of your heart. It only breeds more pain. Dig into the words; there are hidden meanings, within the hidden meanings, in these pages. We are meant to think and apply discipline and dedication to all we do. Don't add to the laziness of our culture, be diligent and courageous. Push through the pain. No pain, no gain. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal. (2 Corinthians 4:17-18) The Creator's message is all around us; that's what we were made for, relationship to the Creator. Keep the communication line open constantly and endlessly, and be a witness to the many wonders. The Creator is ready to reveal the unseen, always and forever.
