These essays explore the remarkable expansion of publishing from 1750 to 1850 which reflected the growth of literacy, and the diversification of the reading public. Experimentation with new genres, methods of advertising, marketing and dissemination, forms of critical reception and modes of access to writing are also examined in detail. This collection represents a new wave of critical writing extending cultural materialism beyond its accustomed concern with historicizing the words on the page into the economics of literature, and the investigation of neglected areas of print culture.
Mary Wollstonecraft was an extraordinary individual, yet her
literary life exemplifies how many women of that time adopted print
culture to bring about change. This study argues that protestant
society had traditionally sanctioned women's role in spreading
literacy, but this became politicized in the 1790s.
Wollstonecraft's literary vocation was shaped by the high
expectations of the power of print to educate and reform
individuals and society, in the radical circles of the Unitarian
publisher Joseph Johnson, and the Girondins in revolutionary Paris.

How do we live as "resurrection people"? How do we take those
stories into our hearts and lives, living as though we believe
resurrection to be a reality? Frank Brookhart takes stories of the
resurrection and illuminates a way for Christians and seekers to
explore life in the new creation. Tying the Gospel narrative to our
lives as followers of Jesus, he proposes a means for transforming
people and churches through livinginto the resurrection with the
Risen Lord."
