Description

This materialist study examines the short story's development across three diverse British magazines during the 1890s, revealing how commercial pressures and modernist innovation intersected at the dawn of modernism. The book explores how popular magazines balanced formal experimentation with marketing strategies that appealed to elite audiences, whilst maintaining anti-commercial opacity. By integrating cultural studies methods with formal literary analysis, this work challenges Andreas Huyssen's influential "great divide" of modernism thesis, offering fresh perspectives on how economic forces shaped modernist fiction. Essential reading for scholars and students investigating the relationship between commerce, culture, and literary modernism in late nineteenth-century British periodical publishing.

Key Features

Examines short story development across three distinct British periodicals from the 1890s era, tracing modernist formal innovation within commercial magazine contexts.

Integrates cultural studies methodology with close formal analysis to reveal how economic pressures influenced literary modernism and periodical publishing.

Challenges Andreas Huyssen's "great divide" thesis by demonstrating how modernist techniques emerged from and responded to popular magazine markets.

Analyses the paradox of anti-commercial opacity serving as an effective marketing strategy that reinforced elite literary status and audience appeal.

Published by Routledge as part of the Literary Criticism and Cultural Theory series, offering rigorous scholarly examination of late nineteenth-century British literature and periodical culture.
