This book unearths archival evidence to describe a collaborative, consumer-oriented modernism that developed out of both planned and fortuitous groupings in periodicals. 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.
Tracing the serialization and advertisement of four key texts: Henry James’s The Turn of the Screw in Collier’s (1898), Rudyard Kipling’s Kim in McClure’s and Cassell’s (1900-1901), James Joyce’s Ulysses in the Little Review (1918-1920), and Virginia Woolf’s Mrs. Dalloway in Bond Street in The Dial (1923). Research at multiple archives unearths the forgotten story behind the texts we think we know so well. This study pieces together original records of journals’ advertising strategies, previously unpublished editorial correspondence and memoranda, and long-buried letters from a wide range of repositories.
