Description

Highlights the transformative impact that book publishers had on the modernist movement Publishing houses are nearly invisible in modernist studies. Looking beyond little magazines and other periodicals, this collection highlights the importance of book publishers in the diffusion of modernism. It also participates in the transnational turn in modernist studies, demonstrating that book publishers created new markets for modernist texts in the United States, Europe and the rest of the world. Key Features: The first volume on Anglo-American book publishers that sold difficult modernist texts to a wide range of readers around the world Sheds new light on the relationship between publishers and major modernist writers Includes essays of broad significance written in an accessible prose Draws on extensive work in neglected archives

Author Biography:

Lise Jaillant is Senior Lecturer (Associate Professor) in the School of Social Sciences and Humanities at Loughborough University, UK. She specialises in twentieth-century literary institutions, with a special interest in publishers and creative writing programmes. Her first monograph was Modernism, Middlebrow and the Literary Canon: the Modern Library Series, 1917-1955 (Routledge, 2014). She then wrote Cheap Modernism: Expanding Markets, Publishers' Series and the Avant-Garde (EUP, 2017) and she edited Publishing Modernist Fiction and Poetry (EUP, 2019). Taken together, these three books offer a broad overview of Anglo-American publishers in the early-twentieth-century, and their influence on the diffusion of modern literature.
