This collection of original essays highlights the intertwined fates
of the modern short story and periodical culture in the period 1880
1950, the heydays of magazine short fiction in Britain. Through
case studies that focus on particular magazines, short stories and
authors, chapters investigate the presence, status and functioning
of short stories within a variety of periodical publications
highbrow and popular, mainstream and specialised, middlebrow and
avant-garde. Examining the impact of social and publishing networks
on the production, dissemination and reception of short stories, it
foregrounds the ways in which magazines and periodicals shaped
conversations about the short story form and prompted or provoked
writers into developing the genre.Elke D'hoker is Professor of
English Literature at the University of Leuven.
