Description

This comprehensive study traces Elizabeth Gaskell's Cranford from its 1851-53 serialization in Dickens's Household Words through its evolution across numerous editions and adaptations. Authored by Thomas Recchio, the work examines how Cranford has been deployed to support ideas about nation and national identity across different historical periods and markets. The book maps the text's nineteenth-century reception in Britain and the United States, exploring illustrated editions from England dating to 1864 and their subsequent American re-publication, US school editions from the early twentieth century, and dramatic adaptations that shaped the novel's cultural legacy. This Ashgate Studies in Publishing History volume provides scholars and students with detailed insights into the material and textual history of a canonical Victorian work.
