Description

Explore the historical origins of modern media with The Invention of Journalism by MACMILLAN. This scholarly work challenges common assumptions by arguing that journalism is a much more recent development than many historians have previously recognized. This book provides a deep look into how the profession of the journalist and the specific style of journalistic discourse came to be. It traces these developments back to the second half of the 19th century, marking the rise of a specialized field of discursive production known as the journalistic field. Readers will gain a clear understanding of how this unique field emerged and how it shaped the way information is communicated. The text examines the specific development of discursive norms, practices, and strategies that define journalistic discourse today. It is an essential resource for those interested in business and economic history, specifically regarding the evolution of information industries and media structures.
