James L. W. West 《Publishing Research Quarterly》1994,10(3):72-83
Biographers and book historians both study life histories, and practitioners of the two disciplines have much to learn from
one another. The author illustrates this point with a document from a publisher’s archive which reveals a great deal about
an author’s career as well as about publishing practices, and with a bibliographical puzzle which tells much about censorship
in the British publishing industry while at the same time illuminating an important feature of a writer’s career and life.

The role of the literary agent and the reception granted agents by publishers have changed markedly over the course of the
twentieth century. Henry Holt’s views of agents, written in the first decade of the century, help define the status and activities
of agents at that time. These are compared with the role of agents today, using archival sources, the book trade literature,
and interviews.

This article considers the British experience of developing education for publishers at the end of the 1990s. To introduce
the subject, it briefly outlines recent trends in the UK in publishing and bookselling: the size and nature of the workforce
as revealed in recent surveys; and what employers recently indicated that they are looking for in their employees. Then, it
summarises some of the developments that are taking place in education and training, before outlining the courses currently
available in the Universities, their growing emphasis on business management and Information Technology, and the benefits
to employers of recruiting students from these courses. Finally, it raises issues that will become more significant in the
future: new legal and ethical challenges, and the responsibility for preservation and conservation arising from technological
changes; keeping existing staff up to date; the international dimensions of the industry; retaining links between the academic
community and the industry; regulating standards of professional practice; and the development of research.
An earlier and shorter version of this paper, entitled “Education for publishing— the British experience,” was presented by
Ian Johnson at a colloquium “Books, Publishers and Libraries,” organised by Zagreb Chamber of Commerce’s Association of Publishers
and Booksellers and the University of Zagreb’ s Department of Information Science in December 1996.

The article documents the editorial relationship between Peter Carey and his New York based editor for Knopf, Gary Fisketjon,
who worked with Carey on his True History of the Kelly Gang. This account provides the basis for a discussion of how globalised publishing, while promising unity—a single text across
all territories—has instead introduced a tension into the previously cohesive triad of author, editor, and the single authorized
text. As Fisketjon’s experience lays bare, major contemporary texts that are published in multiple editions in different global
centers may well proceed through competing or at least parallel editing processes with different presses, different editors,
and in different publishing territories. The authorized single edition, even of major literary texts, has been replaced by
competing editions. The single edit and editor have been replaced by competing “servant[s] of the writer” (to use Fisketjon’s
phrase). Cohesion, while not quite giving way to disunity, gives way to multiplicity and plurality. The experience of the
Kelly Gang book is cast against a longer narrative of Carey’s interactions with editors including the University of Queensland Press
(UQP) from the 1970s and Faber from the 1980s. 相似文献

With generous support from Congress and the American people, the Library of Congress has become the largest library in the
world. Its extensive and varied publishing programs reflect the growing demands of its many and diverse consituencies; the
innovative uses of new technologies; and the institution’s efforts, especially in the last decade, to reach broader and more
general audiences. Recent projects include the first steps in digitizing and making available selected portions of the Library’s
historical collections; the first sustained effort to develop cooperative endeavors with trade publishers; and the launching
ofCivilization: The Magazine of the Library of Congress. This brief history outlines the evolution of publishing at the Library of Congress, from an eight-page booklist published
in 1801 to the cooperative public-private programs and electronic products of the 1990s.
John Y. Cole has been director of the Center for the Book in the Library of Congress since it was established in 1977. 相似文献

The exploitation of a full range of rights is necessary to make many piblishing projects economically viable. The publishing
contract sets out the rights the publisher may exploit and the division of the proceeds between publisher and author. The
categories of exploitable rights are reviewed, along with the methods of exploiting them. The impact of consolidation in the
publishing industry on rights exploitation is discussed, along with rights issues in the provision of textbooks to developing
countries.

George Newnes became one of the most influential popular publishers of the age of New Journalism, and was probably Britian’s
first media magnate. He published a vast number and variety of journals in the period from 1881 until his death in 1910, editing
some of these, but leaving an impression upon all of them. Newnes’s periodicals included Tit-Bits (1881), Strand Magazine
(1891), The Million (1892), Westminster Gazette (1893), Country Life (1897), The Ladies Field (1898), Wide World Magazine
(1898), The Captain (1899), and C.B. Fry’s Magazine (1904). Newnes was an innovator, and a publishing entrepreneur. This paper
will focus on the entrepreneurial aspects of Newnes’s publishing ventures and the novel technological and promotional techniques
pioneered by him. The analysis will focus upon such techniques as promotional schenesm advertising, production and illustration,
the employment and promotion of popular authors, editors and illustrators, publicity, market segmentation, and financing.
The concluding section consists of an investigation into some of the rhetoric that has been applied to Newnes’s publishing
career, and the way in which, as publishing entrepreneur and media magnate, Newnes’s successes have been cast within a continuing
debate over popular literature, New Journalism and the commercialization of the popular press in the late-nineteenth and early
twentieth centuries.

The Colophon, published from 1925 through 1935 for an audience of book collectors and connoisseurs, illuminates the debate
over the basis of a book's value: genuine quality or artificial scarcity. It also illustrates the distinction between genuine
news about the book industry and “publicity hypnosis”—today’s “hype.” The magazine’s authors, designers, typographers, printers,
and illustrators were among the finest of their day.

book publishing, journalism, and publicity trades between 1920 and 1940 with the support of The British Academy, the National
Endowment, and the Bibliographical Society of America. Her work has been published inAmerican Literary Realism, Journalism Quarterly, Essays in Business and Economic History, and other journals. The Library of Congress, The Center for The Book, is publishing her monograph “The Lakeside Press Four

In her report about the German publishing industry in 2010, Veronika Licher shows some of the trends and different stages
of digital development. She mentions how different players like the German Publishers and Booksellers Association or book
wholesalers changed direction or added new services to adapt to the changing market and how e-book distribution is working
its way through traditional and new channels. A short review of the bestselling titles in 2010 and the development in children’s
publishing follows as well as an introduction how German publishers are trying to make use of the new reading pens. 相似文献

Daniel Shealy 《Publishing Research Quarterly》1987,3(1):63-74
Louisa May Alcott was one of the most popular authors of the nineteenth century. However, Alcott’s literary career would not
have been so successful without the help and advice of various publishers and editors, such as W.W. Clapp, Frank Leslie, James
Redpath, James Elliott, A.K. Loring, and most notably Thomas Niles of Roberts Brothers. All of these publishers or editors
helped Alcott to develop from a writer of lurid, sensational tales to the accomplished professional author of American classics.
In the nineteenth century, it was more than often the publisher who exerted great influence over the nature of a literary
work, from its subject matter to its marketing. This article focuses on Alcott’s relationships with her many publishers and
shows how they helped Alcott develop her own style and subjects into a rewarding career as a writer.

Summary Now more than ever good translations are proving to be vitally important to fulfilling Shoichi Noma’s mission of advancing
good relationships between cultures. With the emergence of dozens of world-class Japanese writers, the translators of Japanese
literature have acquired a new significance and a new importance. No longer are they required to simply handle the language
like an exotic and precious commodity but they must prepare a writer’s work to compete with literature from around the globe
and let others understand the issues at their very heart of the Japanese people.
Indeed, the selection committee’s choice of Murakami’s Wind-Up Bird Chronicle is an apt example of how literature at its very best can span cultural divides to promote mutual understanding of very complicated
and important world issues. Written for Japanese to help them understand the devastation of war, it is a rare and timely book
that confronts Japan’s experience head on. Ironically, Noma’s idea that books are silent ambassadors, an idea born from agony
and defeat, so many years later is helping the world come together towards a unified vision of peace and understanding.
“Literature has been described as a means of exchange between the hearts of people. Literary translation, then, is the building
of bridges so that all peoples of the world can interact in this way.”

The British civil administration of the Mandate (1920–1948) introduced the recordkeeping system used by British government.
The main tool was the Central Registry. Filing was by series, each series including case files, correspondents’ files and
subject files. After Independence, government agencies, courts and local authorities continued the recordkeeping systems and
methods adopted during the Mandate period. Even today, many features of recordkeeping in Israel bear witness to their British
origin.

The forces for change in the 600 hundred-year history of book publishing have never been more powerful and fundamental than
in 2011. Barely 12 months ago, what publishers viewed as “innovation” was the creation of digitized versions of physical books
to be ‘consumed’ on e-reading devices. As 2011 begins, that change is largely regarded as accepted business practice, and
the edge of “innovation” is moving in more complex directions. Publishing finds itself in the midst of a ‘phase shift’ from
the scarcity model of print to a complex, new world of digital abundance. The dimensions of change, moreover, its speed, and
its extent are still unknown. While book publishing begins with the creative work of authors, digital technologies are turning
the business models inside out. Among the forces for change acting on book publishing, this article examines several phenomena
that are working their way in from the edge to the center of the industry, including complex interwoven considerations around
container, context, and customer. 相似文献

Print academic journals are dead. As we watch large metropolitan newspapers fail (as are many small town newspapers), the
same economic forces are driving online scholarly publishing. This phenomenon is more than print journals going online. The
options available with new low-cost online publishing software and the rise in the ability to use ratings from user generated
content suggest more near-term changes are likely. Many of the outcomes are unsettled: the economics of online publishing;
the standards for peer review, rank, and tenure; and the very nature of scholarly publishing itself. What is certain, however,
is that the economics of online academic publishing—modeled via Anderson’s Long Tail Theory—will make it possible to provide
greater access, more collaboration, and, ultimately, improved research and researchers. Universities acting as publishing
centers with their e-reserves will be expected to change their faculty evaluations, providing greater academic rewards for those who act as editors,
reviewers, and proofreaders within this new born-online and only-online world. 相似文献

This article reports on a research study that tested the effect of statements of “ literary warrant ” on lawyers, auditors
and information specialists’ evaluations of a set of functional requirements for electronic evidence. It found that legal
statements can increase the rating of importance of some of the functional requirements. Its results also provided evidence
that differences in subjects professional backgrounds and their computer knowledge can affect the ratings of importance the
subjects gave to the functional requirements.
This study was completed as part of the requirements for the author’s doctoral program. It has benefited immensely from the
insightful comments received from members of her doctoral Committee: Richard Cox, Margaret Hedstrom, Edie Rasmussen, and Steven
Hirtle. David Bearman first purposed the concept of “ literary warrant ”, and this study has also profited greatly from his
wise advice. 相似文献
