Produktbeschreibung

AMS Press president Gabriel Hornstein stimulated the revival of “long” eighteenth-century studies, sponsoring countless publications while creating a global audience for an obscure specialty. Paper, Ink, and Achievement celebrates Hornstein through three sets of essays evaluating the influence of publishers on cultural legacies; the effect of book enthusiasts on literary canons; and favorite long-eighteenth-century literary modes. Paper, Ink, and Achievement commemorates a publishing magnate whose temperate energy propelled his favorite discipline in multitudinous new directions.
