The Culture of the Publisher’s Series, Volume One: Authors, Publishers and the Shaping of Taste de J. Spiers

The Culture of the Publisher’s Series, Volume One: Authors, Publishers and the Shaping of Taste

Editat de J. Spiers
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 18 feb 2011
This volume focuses on the publisher's series as a cultural formation - a material artefact and component of cultural hierarchies. Contributors engage with archival research, cultural theory, literary and bibliometric analysis (amongst a range of other approaches) to contextualize the publisher's series in terms of its cultural and economic work.

Recenzii

'An invaluable and engrossing re-evaluation of the Publishers Series, providing stimulating international comparisons and a lasting and important contribution to modern social and cultural history' - James Raven, Professor in Modern History, University of Essex, UK
'The phenomenon of the publisher's series - so central to 18th and 19th-century publishing and reading practices - has never before been considered so fully. In the sheer breadth of the new material they encompass, enabling comparisons across time and space, these volumes will prove invaluable to students and scholars alike.' - Mary Hammond, Senior Lecturer, Department of English, University of Southampton, UK
