Summary

Much recent writing on print culture has focused on the social and political implications of the transition from elite to mass culture in the 1800s. The essays in this volume aim to add to the understanding of the role of the 19th-century French press in producing the commodities, consumers and ideological frameworks that are the hallmarks of this shift. The book also offers an opportunity for useful comparisons with recent scholarship on the rise of the popular press in the United States, Great Britain and Germany.
