Table of ContentsReviewsMiller discusses the proliferation of literary radicalism during the late stages of the Victoria era. Highlighting both luminaries such as William Morris and George Bernard Shaw and less familiar figures, the author thoughtfully underscores the somewhat surprising antipathy displayed toward print culture by radical writers, editors, and publishers of the day . . . Recommended. --R. C. Cottrell, CHOICE Slow Print builds carefully on several generations of scholarship in the field--but pushes the scholarly conversation forward in important and new directions through its archival findings and synthetic analysis. This is a sit-up-and-take-notice, must-read book in Victorian and modernist studies. --Ann Ardis, University of Delaware This is an original and valuable piece of scholarship, accessibly and vibrantly written. Its argument for 'slow print', which is supported by excellent close readings of the material dimensions of the texts it discusses, as well as aspects of their literary character, is a highly convincing one. --Mathew Beaumont, University College London Social historians have long known that early Victorian radicals saw a free press and mass literacy as preconditions for political progress. Literary historians have long identified early twentieth century 'little magazines' as a driver of modernist aesthetics. Elizabeth Miller is the first scholar to succeed in connecting those dots. . . Many of the pleasures of reading Slow Print lie in its details. --Leah Price, Times Literary Supplement Author InformationElizabeth Carolyn Miller is Professor of English at the University of California, Davis.
