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"
