Recenzii
Shortlisted for the 2023 RSVP Robert and Vineta Colby Book Prize
"[We are] impressed by the combination of weighty original research shown here with some ambitious conceptual models concerned with the classification and exploration...of the press... [The introduction] is a highlight of the collection, with its incisive scheme for understanding the multiple relationships between work and liberalism."
--RSVP Robert and Vineta Colby Book Prize Panel
"[This volume] is a vibrant, invaluable contribution to the study of the Victorian periodical press… this volume reveals how an impressive, dizzying range of trade and professional periodicals documented the work lives, practices, and controversies of an assortment of industries, and also dramatically transformed those industries.
While so many of us were isolated at home, realising the extent to which our workplaces were social and cultural spaces and wondering if they ever would be again, King and colleagues documented ‘the living work’ done by Victorian people and their periodicals. The result is a powerful vision of the Victorian world with great resonance for our own."
