Extending the work of The Routledge Handbook to Nineteenth-Century
British Periodicals and Newspapers, this volume provides a critical
introduction and case studies that illustrate cutting-edge
approaches to periodicals research, as well as an overview of
recent developments in the field. The twelve chapters model diverse
approaches and methodologies for research on nineteenth-century
periodicals. Each case study is contextualized within one of the
following broad areas of research: single periodicals, individual
journalists, gender issues, periodical networks, genre, the
relationship between periodicals, transnational/transatlantic
connections, technologies of printing and illustration, links
within a single periodical, topical subjects, science and
periodicals, and imperialism and periodicals. Contributors
incorporate first-person accounts of how they conducted their
research and provide specific examples of how they gained access to
primary sources, as well as the methods they used to analyze the
materials. The 2018 winner of the Robert and Vineta Colby Scholarly
Book Prize. The Committee describes the focus of the book on
methodology and case studies as "fresh and original," and "useful
for both experienced scholars and those new to the field."
"Overall. Case Studies suggests new ways of reading canonical
authors, new unerstandings of the interprentation of the personal
and the public, and an admirable energy in engaging with the
structures of national and transnational periodical discourses that
are clearly implicated in maintaining soft power within societies"
-- Brian Maidment, Liverpool John Moores University
