Originally published in 1928, this is the companion volume which follows on from Authorship in the Days of Johnson. The book discusses the reading public and socio-economic effects on educational and recreational literacy from improved communications, the spread of radicalism and free-thinking and the industrial revolution. The advance of popular literature is considered and the role which the monthlies, weeklies and dailies contributed to this. The rise of the novel and the social recognition of writers is also considered.
More than fifty specialists have contributed to this new edition of volume 1 of The Cambridge Bibliography of English Literature. The design of the original work has established itself so firmly as a workable solution to the immense problems of analysis, articulation and coordination that it has been retained in all its essentials for the new edition. The task of the new contributors has been to revise and integrate the lists of 1940 and 1957, to add materials of the following decade, to correct and refine the bibliographical details already available, and to re-shape the whole according to a new series of conventions devised to give greater clarity and consistency to the entries.
The goal of this book is to provide tuition and quidance for professionals, professionals-to-be and other interested parties regarding the correct way to express themselves in English in the professional world. In order to make the most of it and do so in a confortable way, the starting level of English knowledge should be at least B1 (intermdiate). These materials are intended, firstly, to support learning within and outside the classroom and, secondly, to enable the student to acquire his/her own the strategies and techniques necessary both to understand and produce a wide range of formal Eglish texts and documents, and also interact in a number of communicative situations at work.
