Abstract (EN):
This chapter examines the emergence of the popular press in Europe in the late‐1800s and early‐1900s. It considers commonalities and variances in how the popular press developed in four distinctive case‐study countries: Britain, Portugal, Russia, and Germany. The case‐studies offer West/East and large/small nation perspectives on the popular press's emergence, and represent a range of technological, political, economic, cultural, and social contexts to the reshaping of the newspaper as a mass media form. The chapter also highlights the advanced industrial basis of newspaper production and distribution, as well as the professionalization of journalism, that supported the popular press's growth.
