A History Of Early Television Vol 2

Editat de Stephen Herbert
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 8 apr 2024
In the 21st Century, broadcast television is an established part of the lives of many millions of people all over the world, bringing information and entertainment directly into our homes. This three volume collection provides source materials for those with a new interest in the history of early television, and is a valuable resource for researchers requiring access to facsimiles of original texts.
The set consists of two important 1920s-1930s books relating to television, and a collection of short articles covering the social, aesthetic, and technical aspects of the medium. Items range from 1870s prophecies, experiments and cartoons, to 1930s accounts of the first public broadcasting systems in Britain, Germany, and the USA. The pieces are from newspapers, specialist journals of the period, and popular magazines. Technical articles included are chosen for their accessibility to non-specialists with limited technical knowledge. The selection comments on the progress of television in many parts of the world.
The set includes a general introduction by the editor, which places each item in context and provides a comprehensive account of the medium through 1940.
The second volume starts with another selection from Television magazine and also includes selected chapters from the Book of Practical Television.
