In a period of turmoil when European and international politics
were in constant reshaping, immigrants and political exiles living
in London set up periodicals which contributed actively to national
and international political debates. Reflecting an
interdisciplinary and international discussion, this book offers a
rare long-term specialist perspective into the cosmopolitan and
multilingual world of the foreign political press in London, with
an emphasis on periodicals published in European languages. It
furthers current research into political exile, the role of print
culture and personal networks as intercultural agents and the
dynamics of transnational political and cultural exchange in global
capitals. Individual chapters deal with Brazilian, French, German,
Indian, Italian, Portuguese, Spanish, Spanish American, and Russian
periodicals. Overarching themes include a historical survey of
foreign political groups present in London throughout the long 19th
century and the causes and movements they championed; analyses of
the press in local and transnational contexts; and a focus on its
actors and on the material conditions in which this press was
created and disseminated. The Foreign Political Press in
Nineteenth-Century London is a useful volume for students and
academics with an interest in 19th-century politics or the history
of the press.
