Description
The Edinburgh History of Children's Periodicals is the first comprehensive academic history of magazines for young people, spanning from the mid-eighteenth century to today. This groundbreaking work by Edinburgh University Press brings together periodicals from Britain, Ireland, North America, Australia, New Zealand and India to examine how children's magazines have served as affordable and accessible reading platforms and spaces for virtual communities. Since the 1750s, when the first children's periodical emerged, these publications have played a vital role in children's cultural life, yet they have received far less scholarly attention than children's literature itself. This essential volume explores the roles of gender and other critical themes across centuries of youth-oriented periodicals, offering researchers, educators and literary scholars a definitive reference work on a neglected but significant area of publishing history.

Key Features

The Edinburgh History of Children's Periodicals covers the complete span from the 1750s to the present day, providing unprecedented historical scope.

This work assembles periodicals from six major regions including Britain, Ireland, North America, Australia, New Zealand and India for global perspective.

Published by Edinburgh University Press, this is the first major academic history dedicated exclusively to children's magazines and periodicals.

The book examines how children's periodicals functioned as affordable, accessible reading sources that enabled young people to form virtual communities.
