Beskrivning

This book offers a new interpretation of the place of periodicals in nineteenth-century Ireland. Case studies of representative titles as well as maps and visual material (lithographs, wood engravings, title-pages) illustrate a thriving industry, encouraged, rather than defeated by the political and social upheaval of the century. Titles examined include: The Irish Magazine, and Monthly Asylum for Neglected Biography and The Irish Farmers’ Journal, and Weekly Intelligencer; The Dublin University Magazine; Royal Irish Academy Transactions and Proceedings and The Dublin Penny Journal; The Irish Builder (1859-1979); domestic titles from the publishing firm of James Duffy; Pat and To-Day’s Woman. The Appendix consists of excerpts from a series entitled ‘The Rise and Progress of Printing and Publishing in Ireland’ that appeared in The Irish Builder from July of 1877 to June of 1878. Written in a highly entertaining, anecdotal style, the series provides contemporary information about the Irish publishing industry.

Recensioner i media

“This volume is a very welcome addition to the growing work on periodicals in Ireland and a timely corrective to the emphasis given to such publications of twentieth century Ireland. Additionally, the inclusion of numerous illustrations gives readers an insight into what the publications actually looked like.” (Mark O’Brien, Victorian Studies, Vol. 65 (1), 2022)“The Periodical Press in Nineteenth-Century Ireland … trace press history during a century of social, political, and cultural change. … Tilley examine the complicated relationship between patriotism and print media, examining periodicals that crossed borders or refused to do so. [This work] will undoubtedly make a valuable contribution to the field of Victorian periodicals scholarship.” (Mary McCartney, Victorian Periodicals Review, Vol. 53 (4), 2020)
