In the second half of the Cold War, some of these periodicals functioned as crucial intersections of communication between dissidents, emigrants and Western European intellectuals. These periodicals were the greenhouses for the development of new definitions of Central Europe, Eastern Europe, and Europe at large. This article studies Cold War émigré periodicals from a spatial perspective and argues that they can be analysed as European cultural spaces. In this approach, European cultural spaces are seen as insular components of a European public sphere. The particular settings (spaces) within which the periodicals developed have contributed greatly to the ideas that they expressed. The specific limits and functions of periodicals such as Kultura or Svědectví [Testimony] have triggered perceptions of Central European and European solidarity. The originally Russian periodical Kontinent promoted an eventually less successful East European-Russian solidarity.

A group of young intellectuals and artists, here defined as the Florentine avant-garde, gathered around this periodical and its successors, La Voce (1908-1916) and Lacerba (1913-15). By drawing on Bourdieu’s sociological theory of cultural fields, this essay explores how the intellectuals writing for these periodicals established a powerful intellectual network and criticized the cultural institutions of the period: universities, the press, the literary and the artistic markets. By tracing individual biographies and intellectual trajectories, this essay also highlights the conflicts that arose within the Florentine avant-garde and between it and the Futurists led by Filippo Tommaso Marinetti.

Mohr","doi":"10.21825/jeps.v3i1.8093","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.21825/jeps.v3i1.8093","url":null,"abstract":"The purpose of this article is to assess the value of law journals as sources for a critical period of transition in modern Irish history. This is the years between 1916 and 1922 that witnessed the secession of most of the island of Ireland from the United Kingdom. The main source for this analysis is a journal known as the Irish Law Times which, in this period, was the only major law journal in existence on the island. A number of other publications, of lesser significance as historical sources, will also be included in this analysis such as the Irish Law Society Gazette, a minor publication that was exclusively aimed at Irish solicitors. The first purpose of this article is to introduce this useful source material for the years of upheaval in Ireland between 1916 and 1922 that has not previously come under close scholarly analysis. Historians and political scientists often overlook legal source material in analyses of particular historical periods. It is hoped that this interdisciplinary analysis will provide a general guide to these sources for scholars interested in particular aspects of this period of revolution. The second purpose of this analysis is to examine the response of the Irish legal professions to these important years of revolution and upheaval. This response is of wider historical interest because the Irish legal professions spanned traditional political divisions between Irish unionists, who wished to maintain links with the United Kingdom, and Irish nationalists, who wished for substantial autonomy or complete independence from the United Kingdom. Consequently, Irish law journals had to maintain a difficult balancing act between these viewpoints during a difficult period of bitter conflict.

The distances between them were quite obvious from the start. It was not so much a geographical matter as a different conception of literary patterns and commitment. These difficulties worsened after the construction of the Berlin Wall: the urgency of German writers to reflect upon their historical condition collided with the French authors’ preference to represent contemporary society. In their correspondence, the discussions about planning an international journal became more important than actually making an international journal. Therefore, they never managed to reach an agreement on the structure of the journal itself - to the point that Leonetti, in a letter addressed to Vittorini in November 1962, clearly wrote of a ‘non-revue’. Gulliver was a unique experiment; it was published in 1964 as the seventh issue of the Italian literary journal Il Menabò (printed by Einaudi and edited by Vittorini and Calvino between 1959 and 1967). It is, undoubtedly, a failure of cultural mediation. However in the Italian scenario of that time, it represents one of the most relevant attempts to create a cross-border intellectual community, broaden national topics, and gain a European dimension.","PeriodicalId":142850,"journal":{"name":"Journal of European Periodical Studies","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123804730","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
