Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. This book takes seriously the late-Victorian periodical essay, treating it with the same formal care that another study might give to Thomas Hardys poetry or Henry Jamess prose. It also attends to the essays periodical context: advertisements, news, serial publication, material transience, and burying ubiquity. It challenges the distinction between serious literature and mere articles that appear in dailies, weeklies, and monthlies. And then it argues that, to understand the periodical essay between 1880 and 1920 is to understand the transitions of that period more clearly from belief to doubt, from country to city, from thick time to clock time. The periodical essay is implicated in all these transitions. In making this argument, this book makes special reference to three authors: Oscar Wilde, G. K. Chesterton and Virginia Woolf.
