Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'The Profession of Letters' is a seminal study that examines the sociological and economic conditions of the English literary world during a period of profound transition. Focusing on the years between 1780 and 1832, A.S. Collins explores the shift from a system of private aristocratic patronage t…o a burgeoning commercial marketplace driven by a growing middle-class reading public. The work provides a detailed analysis of the evolving relationships between authors, publishers, and their audiences, tracing the professionalization of the writer's craft.Through a careful investigation of the financial realities and social status of literary figures during the Romantic era, the book highlights the rise of influential periodicals and the expansion of the book trade. Collins demonstrates how technological advancements and shifting cultural values allowed authors to achieve a new level of independence. 'The Profession of Letters' serves as an essential resource for understanding the historical development of the publishing industry and the foundational structures that support modern literary life. It offers deep insights into how the business of books transformed the creative output and professional identity of some of England's most celebrated writers.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
