In den letzten Jahren ist eine Vernderung der buchwissenschaftlichen Forschung zu beobachten, die von einer berwiegend historischen und narrativen Richtung - nicht zuletzt durch die medialen Umbrche - eine notwendige Neukonzeption und Ausweitung von Forschungsfragen und ihrer theoretischen Basierung vornimmt. Die Bearbeitung der Kommunikationsformen von Schrift- und Lesemedien kennzeichnen den neuen Ansatz. Das Konzept der Reihe basiert auf einer interdisziplinren, kommunikations- und medienwissenschaftlich orientierten Hinterlegung der Begriffe Schrift- bzw. Lesemedien. Damit stehen im Programm nicht nur Medien selbst wie z. B. Buch, Zeitung, Zeitschrift im Mittelpunkt, sondern die Dimensionen der Medienkommunikation von Schrift- und Lesemedien insgesamt. Dieser in Forschung und Lehre erprobte Ansatz ist integrativ und hat damit viele Schnittstellen zu Nachbardisziplinen. Das Reihenprofil umfasst das zentrale, spezifische Problemlsungspotential eines interdisziplinr buchwissenschaftlichen (im weitesten Sinne) Zugangs zur schriftbasierten Kommunikation in Geschichte und Gegenwart.

Описание: Charles Knight's The Old Printer was first published in 1854 and is partly a biography of William Caxton and partly an account of the development of the printing press and its role in English literature from the fifteenth century. William Caxton was not only the first printer in England, but also a prolific translator and importer of books. He established a printing press at Westminster and among the books printed there were Chaucer's Canterbury Tales and The Subtil Histories and Fables of Esop. Knight describes Elizabethan reading habits and traces the development of the types of books, papers and magazines that were most popular with the reading public in the mid-nineteenth century. The author is particularly interested in the availability of cheap popular literature as he regards this as an indication of the democratisation of society.

Описание: Author and Printer in Victorian England demonstrates that printing technology shapes texts. The technology involved was a nineteenth-century revolution in printing methods; the texts were classic literary works by Victorian authors. What was at stake was textual control: who would decide how the text would read-author, compositor, printer's reader, or publisher? In a unique fusion of literary history and printing history, Allan C. Dooley explores the interactions between individual authors and their publishers and printers. He takes the reader through each stage of a work's development, illustrating how authors attempted to perfect and protect their writings from compositional manuscript through stereotyped reprints. His analysis includes details of a wide range of technical innovations and changes in practices in the printing of books between the development of printing machines in the 1830s and 1840s and the introduction of the Linotype in the 1890s. Drawing on the experiences of leading Victorian authors, he shows how nineteenth-century printing practices both enhanced and diminished writers' abilities to control texts. He reveals that much more was under their control than has commonly been believed and that many authors took advantage of printing technologies in order to gain and maintain control over the texts of their works. But new kinds of errors and new sources of inaccuracy were introduced by the technology as well.
