Modernism, Periodicals, and Cultural Poetics

Zusatztext “Modernism, Periodicals, and Cultural Poetics offers a substantial contribution to increasing scholarship on the late modernist period. … The wealth of information covered in Chambers’s book is ambitious: each chapter zeroes in on case studies featuring a complex periodical formation, both bringing home the centrality of periodicals in facilitating cultural change, and illustrating why periodical publications are quintessential resources for examining how cultural, political, and societal changes occur.” (Leah Budke, Journal of European Studies, Vol. 3 (1), 2018) Informationen zum Autor Matthew Chambers is Assistant Professor of Transatlantic and Media Studies at the University of Lodz, Poland.
