Newly commissioned essays by leading scholars offer a comprehensive
and authoritative overview of the diversity, range and impact of
the newspaper and periodical press in nineteenth-century Britain.
Essays range from studies of periodical formats in the nineteenth
century - reviews, magazines and newspapers - to accounts of
individual journalists, many of them eminent writers of the day.
The uneasy relationship between the new 'profession' of journalism
and the evolving profession of authorship is investigated, as is
the impact of technological innovations, such as the telegraph, the
typewriter and new processes of illustration. Contributors go on to
consider the transnational and global dimensions of the British
press and its impact in the rest of the world. As digitisation of
historical media opens up new avenues of research, the collection
reveals the centrality of the press to our understanding of the
nineteenth century.
