📢#OutNow in #OA: '#CheapPrint and #StreetLiterature of the #LongEighteenthCentury', edited by David Atkinson and Steve Roud.
This deeply researched collection offers a comprehensive introduction to the #eighteenthcentury trade in #streetliterature – #ballads, #chapbooks, and #popularprints – in England and Scotland.
Offering detailed studies of a selection of the printers, types of publication, and places of publication that constituted the cheap and popular print trade during the period, these essays delve into #ballads, #slipsongs, #storybooks, pictures, and more to push back against neat divisions between low and high culture, or popular and high #literature.
It will be of great value to scholars and students of eighteenth-century #popularculture and #literature, #print #history and the #booktrade, #ballad and #folk studies, children’s literature, and #socialhistory.
This #OpenAccess title is avalable at https://openbookpublishers.com/books/10.11647/obp.0347

It is astonishing, but there is still not a single #blockbuster on how we actually solve #climatecrisis, eliminate our dependency on #fossilfuels and make #climatepolicy work. The topic is being persistently avoided in #Hollywood and #popularculture in general. Yet, it’s the most acute existing #disaster unfolding in front of us.

Just read an article by @VaVeros which makes me sad and angry about how so many librarians continue to treat romance fiction as lesser even than other kinds of genre fiction: https://www.jprstudies.org/2023/05/nobody-puts-romance-fiction-in-the-corner-public-librarians-in-new-south-wales-and-their-dalliance-with-romance-fiction/
(Should note that @VaVeros is an academic librarian who's been championing romance, and this is an offshoot of her PhD)
