Reflecting an interdisciplinary and international discussion, this book offers a rare long-term specialist perspective into the cosmopolitan and multilingual world of the foreign political press in London, with an emphasis on periodicals published in European languages. It furthers current research into political exile, the role of print culture and personal networks as intercultural agents and the dynamics of transnational political and cultural exchange in global capitals.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Individual chapters deal with Brazilian, French, German, Indian, Italian, Portuguese, Spanish, Spanish American, and Russian periodicals. Overarching themes include a historical survey of foreign political groups present in London throughout the long 19th century and the c\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e[A] must-read for anybody with a taste for the Victorian press, Victorian politics, cosmopolitanism, and immigration in late nineteenth-century London. It resolutely convinces readers that the foreign political press is a fully fledged part of the British press. * History: Reviews of New Books *\u003cbr\u003e[The] potential benefits of this work for any number of audiences are myriad. Its chapters can easily be incorporated into numerous college courses on journalism, anticolonial or revolutionary studies, or the history of nineteenth-century radicalism, to name a few … Bantman’s and da Silva’s volume will likely, and certainly should, stand as a model contribution for the discipline. * JHistory *\u003cbr\u003e[A] fascinating book ... Ultimately, the reader is impressed with the volume’s overall sense of topicality, not only, as Bantman suggests, concerning London and multiculturalism, nor with the wider concept of transnational print culture, but with a more radical questioning of the role and responsibility of the press in the development of extremist international politics. * Journal of European Periodical Studies *\u003cbr\u003eProvides a wide and viable foundation for future research, thereby fulfilling its stated goals by delivering a valuable collection of studies. * Anarchist Studies *\u003cbr\u003eThis is an important contribution to print history as well as transnational and migration studies. Its perceptive and revelatory essays break new ground, opening up areas of press activity hitherto downplayed, ignored or unknown. While authoritative, the volume will no doubt inspire a great deal more work in this area. This is a significant book that deserves to be widely read. * Andrew King, Professor of English Literature and Literary Studies, University of Greenwich, UK *\u003cbr\u003eThis is an invaluable, scholarly, and original book. By exploring the work of many European, Russian, and Indian activists and journalists who were based in London and published newspapers there during the long 19th century, the contributors cast light on the politics of exile and empire, the shifting meanings of liberalism and protest, the uses of print and language, and the transmission of information across national and continental boundaries. * Linda Colley, Shelby M.C.Davis 1958 Professor of History, Princeton University, USA *\u003cbr\u003eA highly significant contribution to the field of Victorian periodical studies. Through case-studies, the contributors present a thorough analysis of the print cultures of many foreign national groups in 19th-century London. This is the first endeavour to consider the foreign political press in Britain globally, and it is set to encourage fruitful discussions and enrich the historiography of the transnational press. * Stéphanie Prévost, Senior Lecturer in 19th-Century British History, Paris Diderot University, France *\u003cbr\u003eA solid collection that provides the reader with a detailed geography of the Victorian London publishing world and sheds some light on aspects hitherto neglected. * European Review of History *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eList of Illustrations Introduction: The Foreign Political Press in Nineteenth-Century London: Local and Transnational Contexts, \u003ci\u003eConstance Bantman (University of Surrey, UK)\u003c\/i\u003e Chapter 1: Newsprint Nations: Spanish American Publishing in London, 1808-1827, \u003ci\u003eKaren Racine (University of Guelph, Canada) \u003c\/i\u003e Chapter 2: Cultural Identity and Political Dissidence in the Spanish Periodicals in London, \u003ci\u003eDaniel Munoz-Sempere (King's College London, UK) \u003c\/i\u003e Chapter 3: Hipólito da Costa, o \u003ci\u003eCorreio Braziliense\u003c\/i\u003e and the Dissemination of the Enlightenment in Brazil, \u003ci\u003eIsabel Lustosa (Casa de Rui Barbosa, Rio de Janiero) and Ana Cláudia Suriani da Silva (University College London, UK)\u003c\/i\u003e Chapter 4: The Press as a Reflection of the Divisions among the Portuguese Political Exiles (1808-1832), \u003ci\u003eDaniel Alves (\u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003eUniversidade Nova de Lisboa, Portugal)\u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003e and Paulo Jorge Fernandes (\u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003eUniversidade Nova de Lisboa, Portugal)\u003c\/i\u003e Chapter 5: From Republicanism to Anarchism: 50 Years of French Exilic Newspaper Publishing, \u003ci\u003eThomas C.
