From the cover: In Periodicals, Readers and the Making of a Modern Literary Culture: Bengal at the Turn of the Twentieth Century Samarpita Mitra studies literary periodicals as a particular print form, and reveals how their production and circulation were critical to the formation of a Bengali public sphere during the turn of the twentieth century. Given its polyphonic nature, capacity for sustaining debates and adaptability by readers with diverse reading competencies, periodicals became the preferred means for dispensing modern education and entertainment through the vernacular. The book interrogates some of the defining debates that shaped readers' perspectives on critical social issues and explains how literary culture was envisioned as an indicator of the emergent nation. Finally it looks at the Bengali-Muslim and women's periodicals and their readerships and argues that the presence of multiple literary voices make it impossible to speak of Bengali literary culture in any singular terms.

Hardcover. Condición: New. In the decades between the 1870s and 1920s, literary periodicals (Sahitya patrika), much like the newspapers and the books, became popular among the middle-class Bengali homes both as an affordable recreation for leisure hours, and as a major vehicle for the circulation of ideas in the public domain. Periodicals, Readers and the Making of a Modern Literary Culture: Bengal at the Turn of the Twentieth Century begins by looking at the logistics of the production and circulation of periodicals that were oriented towards a widening readership market. Given their easily understood nature, their capacity for sustaining debates and adapt­ability by readers with diverse reading competencies, periodicals be­came the preferred means for dispensing modern education and enjoyment through the vernacular. The proliferation of periodicals, therefore, came to be perceived as a mark of a new national life (jatiya jiban) coming into existence. The book moves on to look at some of the defining debates that shaped readers perspectives on critical social issues and explains how these were tied up with larger concerns over ethical social life. Finally, it looks at the Bengali-Muslim and women s periodicals and their readerships, and argues that the presence of multiple literary voices makes it impossible to speak of Bengali literary culture in any singular term.…
