Literature for the masses appeared on an unprecedented scale in the first half of the 19th-century. This was the earliest response to new and voracious demands for cheap books of all kinds. This famous and innovative book enquires as to the nature of this new material, the responses to it, and its audiences amidst the new reading public which it illuminates
The technological advances in printing, and the urbanisation of the population were key influences. So, too, were new entrepreneurial energies amongst author and publishers.
Professor James shows what were the realities and the resonances of this new culture. He examines the effects of a new urban culture, its complicated class relations, the difficult history of the radical press, and the relationships between popular fiction and 'literature'. His is a detailed and engaging, well illustrated study of the growth of literacy and the vivacious and enormously varied popular literature of both entertainment, improvement, and instruction which was published. This included chapbooks and broadsheets, plagiarisms of Dickens in penny serial numbers, gothic tales of terror, 'blood-and-murder', 'ghost-and-goblin' fiction, exuberant historical novels, domestic stories, romances, and tales of fashionable life.
The first edition was welcomed by Raymond Williams, who wrote that "Dr. James has done so thorough a job that all students of the period will be permanently in his debt....the success of the enquiry, in research terms is outstanding: a solid contribution to the necessary rewriting of nineteenth-century cultural history."
This expanded edition includes new material on how this important study started with, D. Phil work on the Barry Ono Collection; existing non-academic collectors and enthusiasts (Lawson, Algar, Jay, Medcraft, Summers); theatrical artistes (Barry Ono, Frank Pettingell); research on 'Old Boys blood and thunder' serials (E.S. Turner), early academic studies of popular fiction and its audience; literary studies (J.M.S. Tompkins, Margaret Dalziel); readership (Richard Altick, Raymond Williams); social issues (Q.D. Leavis, Richard Hoggart).
The author has also added a short epilogue on other work in the field by radical historians, including E.P. Thompson, Ian Haywood, and Rohan McWilliam.
On working-class readership (by David Vincent); on serial fiction and popular traditions, journalism, melodrama and the visual arts; and on recent studies of Edward Lloyd, J.M. Rymer, G.W.M. Reynolds; reprinted fiction by Valancourt et al. He has added a guide to relevant websites for ongoing study.

Описание: EU capital markets have changed radically over the past 20 years. In the 1980s countries had their own financial industries and rules. Now there is one 'Champions League' of banks, and member states have transferred crucial regulatory powers to Brussels. Drawing on policy documents and more than fifty in-depth interviews, Widen the Market, Narrow the Competition argues that financial industry interests have been key to this power shift. Continental banks initially feared a single European market, and governments followed their protectionist impulses. In the 1990s the mood changed, and the likes of ABN AMRO and Deutsche Bank rushed into international investment banking. They emerged as the crucial lobby for the supranational governance in place today. Linked by the interests of centrally placed firms, EU financial integration and supranational governance have been two sides of the same coin. At the same time, national parliaments and ordinary citizens have been pushed to the sidelines. "The strengthening of European supranantional governance was designed to foster integrated financial markets, but Daniel Mugge's impressive analysis shows how it also generated financial transformations that contributed to the recent financial crisis. This very readable and theoretically rich book should act as a cautionary tale to those inclined to leave regulatory policy in the hands of powerful bankers." Professor Eric Helleiner, Chair in International Governance, Center for International Governance Innovation, University of Waterloo "Daniel Mugge's book investigates the supranationalization of capital market governance in Europe and the interests behind it. Drawing upon British, French and German cases, Mugge explains brilliantly how financial reform in Europe shifted from national divergence to transnational lobbying. Theoretically innovative and thoroughly researched, this is an important book for all scholars of the international political economy and European governance." Professor Leonard Seabrooke, Director of the Centre for the Study of Globalisation and Regionalisation, University of Warwick "As capital markets eluded national governments, so the EU sensibly developed more supranational forms of financial governance. What sort of bargain was struck, whose interests prevailed? Did outcomes enhance the quality of financial governance or contribute to the lengthening shadow of crisis? A compelling read, Mugge's analysis fashions our understanding of the tragic options we now face." Professor Geoffrey Underhill, Chair of International Governance, University of Amsterdam
