Modernist Authorship and Transatlantic Periodical Culture

Exploring the collaborative consumer-oriented Modernism that developed out of both planned and fortuitous groupings in periodicals this book traces the serialization and advertisement of Henry James's <i>The Turn of the Screw</i> in <i>Collier's</i> (1898) Rudyard Kipling's <i>Kim</i>in <i>McClure's</i>and <i>Cassell's</i>(1900-1901) James Joyce's <i>Ulysses</i>in the <i>Little Review</i> (1918-1920) and Virginia Woolf's Mrs.<i></i>Dalloway in Bond Street<i></i>in the <i>Dial</i>(1923).<br/><br/>These periodicals-whether mass-market journals or literary magazines-adjust our perceptions of authors elsewhere known to be in charge and reveal the central role that compromise and chance played in the emergence of Modernism.<br/><br/>Bringing to light new research from multiple archives Sigler pieces together original records of journals' advertising strategies previously unpublished editorial correspondence and long-buried letters to unearth the forgotten stories behind the texts we think we know so well.
