Abstract

U ovome radu nastojat ćemo proučiti cjelokupan pregled razvoja nakladništva u viktorijanskome dobu koje polako poprima značajke moderne industrije te kapitalističke proizvodnje. Započet ćemo s gospodarskim promjenama i industrijalizacijom da bismo se kasnije osvrnuli na aspekte u kojima je napredovala proizvodnja i distribucija knjiga.
Kasnije će biti riječ o bitnim društvenim promjenama. Od poboljšanoga životnog standarda i sve većega broja obrazovanog stanovništva pa do ukidanja poreza na znanje, čime se ukidaju porezi na novine, papir i oglašavanje. Naposljetku, vidjet ćemo kako se mijenja odnos između knjige i čitatelja.
Spomenut ćemo i razne inovacije te trendove u objavljivanju knjiga, poput romana u tri sveska, serijskih oblika te jeftinih izdanja. Na kraju, vidjet ćemo kako su se viktorijanski nakladnici prilagodili tržištu i njegovoj potražnji i masovno proizvodili za mnogobrojnu građansku i radničku klasu istovremeno ostvarujući veliku zaradu.

Abstract (english)

In this paper, we will try to study the whole overview of the development of publishing in the Victorian era, which is slowly taking on the characteristics of modern industry and capitalist production. We will begin with economic change and industrialisation and then look back at the aspects in which the production and distribution of books has progressed.
Later, there will be discussed important social changes. From the improved standard of living and the growing number of educated population to the abolition of the knowledge tax, which abolishes taxes on newspapers, taxes on paper and advertising. Finally, we will see how the relationship between the book and the reader changes.
We will also mention various innovations and trends in publishing books such as novels in three volumes, serial forms and cheap editions. Eventually, we will see how Victorian publishers adapted to the market and its demand where they mass-produced for a large middle and working class and making profits.
