Abstract

This book explores the world of psychogeographical walking as portrayed in zines - self-made, low-budget publications circulated within DIY communities. Termed "new psychogeography", the representation of these mobilities in zines challenge conventional dualisms, favoring peripheral spaces and polyphonic perspectives over urban-centric voyeurism. Through four case studies, the book explores the evolution of the contemporary drifter, emphasizing a departure from conquering cityspaces through stalking to exploring how spaces shape memory, experience, and notions of home. Pioneering research at the intersection of zine and travel writing studies, it unveils the psychogeographical mediality inherent to this medium. Tanja Kapp is Assistant Lecturer in the English Department of the University of Tübingen, Germany. Previously, she was a Research Fellow and Doctoral Candidate at the Graduate Research Group 'New Travel - New Media' at the University of Freiburg, Germany, where she received her PhD in English Literature.

Abstract

This book analyzes the dynamic growth of the U.S. scholarly publishing industry in the United States during 1939-1946, a critical period in the business history of scholarly publications in STM and the humanities and the social sciences. It explains how the key publishing players positioned themselves to take advantage of the war economy and how they used different business and marketing strategies to create the market and demand for scholarly publications. Not only did the atomic threat necessitate a surge in scholarly research, but at the same time scholarly publishing managers prepared for the dramatic shift by anticipating the potential impact of the GI Bill on higher education, creating superb printed products, and by becoming the brand, the source of knowledge and information. The creation of strategic business units and value chains as well as the development of marketing targeting strategies resulted in brand loyalty to certain publishers and publications but also accelerated the growth of the US scholarly publishing industry. Business historians and marketing professors interested in the business strategies of scholarly publishers during World War II will find this book to be a valuable resource.

Abstract

This book examines the development of Chinese children's literature from the late Qing to early Republican era. It highlights the transnational flows of knowledge, texts, and cultures during a time when children's literature in China and the West was developing rapidly. Drawing from a rich archive of periodicals, novels, tracts, primers, and textbooks, the author analyzes how Chinese children's literature published by Protestant missionaries and Chinese educators in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries presented varying notions of childhood. In this period of dramatic transition from the dynastic Qing empire to the new Republican China, young readers were offered different models of childhood, some of which challenged dominant Confucian ideas of what it meant to be a child. This volume sheds new light on a little-explored aspect of Chinese literary history. Through its contributions to the fields of children's literature, book history, missionary history, and translation studies, it enhances our understanding of the negotiations between Chinese and Western cultures that shaped the publication and reception of Chinese texts for children. .

Abstract

'Popular Culture-Serial Culture is the first book to explore serial fiction and the city-mysteries novel in a transatlantic context. Thoughtfully edited and introduced by Daniel Stein and Lisanna Wiele, Popular Culture-Serial Culture features original essays on many aspects of nineteenth-century serial publication by scholars from various countries. This book is an important and timely contribution to book history and transatlantic cultural studies.' - David S. Reynolds, CUNY Graduate Center, author of Mightier than the Sword: "Uncle Tom's Cabin" and the Battle for America and Beneath the American Renaissance 'Popular Culture-Serial Culture addresses in a comprehensive and thoughtful way a significant gap in our scholarship on early popular culture: the complicated and generative transnational circulation of serial texts through an increasingly frenetic popular print culture defined by piracies, "borrowings," and adaptations. Popular Culture-Serial Culture allows us to reorient our understanding of popular culture by finally making visible how popular culture was always complicating national borders and literary cultures in ways that have ramifications for how we must understand pop culture today.' - Jared Gardner, Professor and Director of Popular Culture Studies at The Ohio State University, USA, and author of Master Plots: Race and the Founding of an American Literature, 1787-1845 and The Rise and Fall of Early American Magazine Culture 'As an enthusiast for the transnational turn in literary studies, with a special interest in the nineteenth-century serial boom, I am delighted to see this fine collection in print.' - Graham Law, Professor in Media History, Waseda University, Japan.

Abstract

This book analyzes the various economic and marketing strategies utilized by the five major STM commercial scholarly journal publishers since 2000. This period has witnessed tremendous economic, marketing, and technological growth including the migration from a print only to a hybrid publishing format. With this growth, the industry has also seen the rise of open access publishing, copyright challenges by websites such as Sci-Hub, the emergence of sharing platforms such as ResearchGate and Academia.edu, as well as the impact of Plan S on publishers, universities, and authors. Given this incredible rate of change across the industry, the author explores the diverse strategies and structures created by the largest STm publishers to decipher their effectiveness in addressing technological, ethical, and copyright issues. Also, he examines how mergers and acquisitions diversified operations, such Elsevier's acquisition of Bepress, SSRN, and SCOPUS, among other platforms. Scrutinizing the different managerial, marketing, technology, and economic-financial strategies crafted by scholarly journal publishers between 2000-2020, this book offers a comprehensive assessment of the industry's attempts to identify, understand, cope with, and minimize or defeat the herculean threats to its business model. Albert N. Greco is Professor of Marketing at the Gabelli School of Business at Fordham University, USA. He has authored or edited 27 books, mostly in relation to the book and scholarly journal industries, though he has also written extensively on the newspaper, magazine, information, and radio sectors. .
