10 Introduction: Defining the Field This new work on print journalism contributes to three broad areas of scholarship, namely the teaching of communications, the study of discourse, and press history. It is aimed principally at readers of journalism, and teachers and students in history, media, cultural studies, English literature and librarianship. Each discipline offers particular insights into different aspects of the press, but combined they have the potential to transform our understanding of British journalism. These essays, then, are investigative in two senses: they interrogate the practices and study of journalism, and they explore the possibilities of interdisciplinary work. The political and social uses to which British journalism has been put have long been matters of public concern. One former editor of The Times argued in the late 1930s that 'a free Press, conducted in a spirit of responsible citizenship, may be at once the central problem and the main safeguard of modem democracy'. 1 The ambivalent role performed by journalism in society is a subject of this book, and a number of the essays set out to analyse the central, if complex, relationships established between the newspaper and periodical press and areas of British political and cultural life. However, understanding the functions of journalism depends on the ability to construct and utilise adequate critical methods of research. The book attempts to develop such methods and, in the process of initiating a discourse which theorises journalism, it also presents a critique of current practice and proposes new directions for the study of media. With the aim of fostering discussion of method, the editors organised a conference of the Research Society for Victorian Periodicals on press production, bibliography and theory. Although some of the material here had its origin in that occasion, we have attempted to focus this collection more precisely. Bibliography generally is absent, while theoretical questions - such as definition of the genre, and the common valuation of categories such as the local, metropolitan and provincial press - are to the xi
11 xii Introduction fore. Two key issues were discussed at length and form the basis of the present volume. It seemed necessary to shift attention from journalism as a source for other studies and to treat it as a subject in its own right, and to develop a particular blend of analytical skills in order to effect the shift. Investigating journalism required an unambiguous commitment to interdisciplinarity. This particular form of cultural production, then, can be best understood if the disciplinary boundaries between bibliography, English literature, history and economics are dismantled. Although scholarly interest in journalism has increased in recent years, study of the press still tends to fracture under the pressures of institutional subject classificiation into component single disciplines. The implications of these diverse, if parallel, methods and writings, and considerations of ways in which they may be combined have given rise to this book. In short, our organising principle is that the study of journalism, past and present, demands the recognition of a discrete, interdisciplinary field. Anyone who turns to the newspapers and periodicals of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries will find in them numerous reflexive articles on the press, its ethics, its social and political functions and its history. It is only as academic specialisation developed that journalism was defined principally as a practice, the study of which fell outside history, economics and literature. If it was studied at all in higher education, it was by bibliographers (themselves at the margins of diverse disciplines), or by vocational students of librarianship or journalism. In consequence, the most prolific literary form of the nineteenth century, and the precursor of modern journalism, has largely been ignored by scholars and students in higher education. The recent popularity of media studies in schools and colleges is an encouraging development, but the tendency to focus on twentieth-century forms of communication is artificially constrained. Work on nineteenth-century journalism provides a valuable counterbalance to the overemphasis on contemporary institutions in such courses. The essays are divided into three parts. Part I explores broad theoretical questions pertaining to journalism. Looking at the field as constituted by some recent theoretical models, Lyn Pykett considers the kinds of evidence which periodicals produce, what is context and what text in a variety of theoretical frameworks, and defines the text as 'the object of a freshly constituted interdiscipli-
12 Introduction xiii narity'. Tensions within a hypothetically identifiable genre occupy Margaret Beetham. Rhythms of continuity of the run and closure of the single issue, and the combination of single and collective voices in a single periodical are gauged and related to readership. Anne Humpherys looks at the implication of one discourse with others, the ways news stories rely on popular structures of melodrama and romance to produce meaning. Edward Royle, like Lyn Pykett, addresses modern research; he examines its appropriation of historical 'information' from the press, and argues that journalism as an historical source should be approached with caution and sensitivity. Together these writers dislodge premises, such as transparency of narrative and models of reflection or influence, which commonly underlie raids on the press by colonisers from other disciplines, and suggest methods which a new, discrete field might adopt. Part II draws attention to the rich diversity of Victorian journalism. The nineteenth-century press enjoyed a relationship with society and politics quite different from that of its more centralised modern equivalent. Aled Jones argues that the history of journalism should begin at the local level, by investigating links between titles and their producers, correspondents and readers in and outside London. Four local case studies from the contrasting areas of Wales and London illustrate these connections. Brynley F. Roberts surveys the growth of the Welsh periodical press, while Philip Henry Jones studies the first nine years of Yr Amserau ('The Times'), the first commercially successful Welsh-language newspaper. Similarly, Michael Harris surveys the London locals, analysing the structure of their development, and Dennis Griffiths traces the early management of the Standard between 1827 and Finally, Lucy Brown outlines the growth of the national press which had grown to dominate British journalism by the 1890s. Part III looks to some future directions in journalism studies. B.E. Maidment takes on the limited accommodation of the Victorian press by twentieth-century academic journals, and argues for attention to Victorian journalism as such, while Joel H. Wiener suggests materials for undertaking this in a piece on sources for the study of newspapers. Scott Bennett raises the urgent matter of the physical preservation of Victorian periodicals, and Deian Hopkin considers the extent to which electronic journalism is likely to replace print journalism in future.
13 xiv Introduction These investigative essays are designed to open new avenues of research, and to stimulate further work on ways in which nineteenth-century journalism may be read, and its histories written.
