Beskrivning
In the modern era, there arose a prolific and vibrant print culture-books, newspapers, and magazines issued by and for diverse, often marginalized, groups. This long-overdue collection offers a unique foray into the multicultural world of reading and readers in the United States. The contributors to this award-winning collection pen interdisciplinary essays that examine the many ways print culture functions within different groups. The essays link gender, class, and ethnicity to the uses and goals of a wide variety of publications and also explore the role print materials play in constructing historical events like the Titanic disaster. Contributors: Lynne M. Adrian, Steven Biel, James P. Danky, Elizabeth Davey, Michael Fultz, Jacqueline Goldsby, Norma Fay Green, Violet Johnson, Elizabeth McHenry, Christine Pawley, Yumei Sun, and Rudolph J. Vecoli

Recensioner i media

Winner of the Carey McWilliams Award given by MultiCultural Review, 1999."Each of the essays provides a fascinating insight into a field often ignored by media historians."--Margaret A. Blanchard, Communications Bulletin Quarterly "Despite the diversity of topics and periods covered in this essay collection, it hangs together well as a book trying to address some neglected areas of research while fitting into an established historiographical framework. . . . I would encourage anyone interested in any aspect of the print culture of the modern United States to pick up this book."--Journal of the Printing Historical Society
