Offers a definitive history of the British and Irish Press from
1900-2017 Captures the cross-regional and transnational dimension
of press history in twentieth-century and at the start of twenty
first-century Britain and Ireland Offers unique and important
reassessments of twentieth-century and contemporary British and
Irish press and periodical media within social, cultural,
technological, economic and historical contexts Provides a timeline
of significant events for cross-reference as well as an extensive
bibliography for further research At various points over the last
400 years, key political, economic and social processes, have
worked to hinder or promote the expansion and dissemination of
information across Britain and Ireland via newspapers and
periodicals. In a contemporary era characterized by debate on the
limits of devolution and the potential of independence we need to
assess the roles played by newspapers and periodicals in enabling
national and regional identities to emerge, cohere and diversify
over time. How can we best identify the most significant of these
processes? What were the critical flashpoints in their development?
How have they marked the place of the press in civic society? What
are the consequences in considering these within the general
history of the British and Irish press? This proposed volume in a
three volume series will address these matters, offering a
definitive account of newspaper and periodical press activity
across Britain and Ireland between 1900 and 2017, and addressing
questions related to four key research interests: general
social/political history; newspaper and periodical history;
cultural history; technological history. A further aim is to
situate such discussions within the larger framework of
communication and media history.
