Simone Murray 
Mixed Media [PDF ebook] 
Feminist Presses and Publishing Politics

Support

The feminist press movement transformed the publishing industry, literary culture and educational curricula during the last quarter of the 20th century. This book is both a survey of the movement internationally and a detailed critique of its long-term impact.
Feminist presses are described as ‚mixed media‘, always attempting to balance politics with profit-making. Using a series of detailed case studies, Simone Murray highlights the specific debates through which this dilemma plays out: the nature of independence; the politics of race; feminist publishing and the academy; radical writing and publishing practice; and feminism’s interface with mainstream publishing.
