Book SynopsisThis book provides students and academics with a comprehensive analysis of the theory and practice of branding. The challenge to explore new and effective ways of harnessing the power of communication to engage with company stakeholders in interactive, immediate and innovative ways is ever-present in the digital era.

Yet, limited empirical research exists to elucidate these issues, and less still that assists our understanding of branding issues at an international level.Recognising the complexity and plurality at the heart of the branding discipline, this text explores the relationship between brands, identity and stakeholders. Working through building, designing and maintaining a brand, the authors consider such aspects as strategic planning and campaign management, research and measurement, media relations, employee communication, Trade Review"Contemporary Issues in Branding … does what it states on the cover.

Book SynopsisBob Marley died in 1981, but the interest he generated in the raggae, blues, and world beat music continued to grow. Around the world local bands sprang up and clubs began to feature the music to ever-increasing numbers of patrons.

Made on photocopiers and litho presses, by local artists, they have the edge that comes from needing to catch one''s attention with a minimum of expense. The result is raw, in-your-face street art that captures the spirit of a generation.

Book SynopsisMason uses the antics of Romantic-era advertising to illustrate the profound implications of commercial modernity, both in economic practices governing the book trade and, more broadly, in the development of the modern idea of literature.Trade ReviewA book that has an entire chapter on Lord Byron and 'branding'- who would not be intrigued?... Highly Recommended. Choice This book substantially enriches our understanding not just of British Romanticism but also of the history of advertising... The book's thoroughly historical argument works within the sub-fields of print culture and material culture to reveal the intimate connections between consumer culture and literary writing... Mason's work performs a number of valuable services for the study of Romanticism... This book deserves attention. -- Robert Anderson Review 19 Mason's Literary Advertising provides a valuable contribution to our understanding of how the Romantic literary system actually worked... Mason persuasivley shows how thoroughly connected art and commerce became in the period despite Romantic posturing about artistic independence. -- Daniela Garofalo SHARP News Literary Advertising and the Shaping of British Romanticism helpfully chronicles the rise of advertising in periodicals, highlighting its methods and subjects... A valuable book. -- Mischa Willett Victorian Periodicals Review Mason's book is a timely corrective to the outdated idea that Romantic reviewing was a practice of nonstop aggression. -- Adela Pinch Studies in English Literature As Nicholas Mason notes in his well-rounded study of eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century advertising history and literary culture, today's promotional culture owes a great deal to methods pioneered by key figures of the Georgian and Romantic period. -- David Finkelstein Keats-Shelley Journal Literary Advertising effectively draws the right kind of critical attention to the multiple ways in which the trade in Romantic poetic productions both influenced and commercially exploited innovative marketing techniques that quickly became industry norms in the nineteenth century; furthermore, Mason is persuasive in his concluding arguments, supported by testimony from period writers, editors, and booksellers themselves... 1650-1850: Ideas, Aesthetics and Inquiries in the Early Modern Age Nicholas Mason's Literary Advertising and the Shaping of British Romanticism is an illuminating reminder of the importance of economics and system in the production of the literature that we have come to call Romantic.

Book SynopsisThis work tells the full story of the weapons, including fighter-planes, tanks, ships, and guns, that America produced during the war to defeat the Axis powers, and how they were "sold" to those at home through the countless advertisements that appeared in popular magazines. Though well-known companies such as General Motors, Ford, Kelvinator, and B.F. Goodrich, and a whole host of others, could no longer sell their products to consumers, they instead turned their factories towards supplying the Arsenal of Democracy. In order to keep their names in the public spotlight, these companies advertised in great detail the weapons they were building; Cadillac touted its efforts in supplying components for Sherman tanks and P-38 Lightning fighters, Ford no longer built cars in Detroit, but B-24 Liberator bombers and Jeeps, while the home appliance company Kelvinator built aircraft components and flame-throwers. The story behind these advertisements, many of them stunning visuals which are here reproduced in color, is a unique aspect of World War II history that will both surprise and delight.Table of ContentsIntroduction; Part I: Selling the War on the Home Front; 1 Advertising Basics during World War II; 2 "Reading" the Popular Magazine Ads; Part II: Weapons of War in the Magazine Pages; 3 Tanks and Other Armored Vehicles; 4 Naval Vessels Big and Small; 5 Army Air Force Fighters and Bombers; 6 Navy Fighters, Bombers, and other Aircraft; 7 Military Utility Vehicles; 8 Guns and Other Ordnance; Source Bibliography.
