None Anatomy of an English Radical Newspaper : The Moderate (1648-9) PDF
by Laurent Curelly
Description
This book explores the content of The Moderate, a radical newspaper of the British Civil Wars published in the pivotal years 1648-9.
This newsbook, as newspapers were then known, is commonly associated with the Leveller movement, a radical political group that promoted a democratic form of government.
While valuable studies have been published on the history of seventeenth-century English periodicals, as well as on the interaction between these newspapers and print culture at large, very little has been written on individual newspapers.
This book fills a void: it provides an in-depth investigation of the news printed in The Moderate, with reference to other newspapers and to the larger historical context, and captures the essence of this periodical, seen both as a political publication and a commercial product.
This book will be of interest to early-modern historians and literary scholars.
