Using my own family as a case study (from my grandmother—who taught herself to read Shakespeare as a teenager in the 1930s in the scant free time she had as a domestic worker—to my daughter, who spends hours every night reading paperbacks in the bath), I suggest that time spent reading need not necessarily be seen as an optional extra, nor even as stolen time, but as integral to our lived (and shared) day-to-day. I attempt to enact this integration in the form of this article—for example, it is structured in five Acts, following Shakespeare's plays; and variations of chapter titles from A. A. Milne's Winnie the Pooh are used to introduce each Act.","PeriodicalId":40584,"journal":{"name":"Reception-Texts Readers Audiences History","volume":"1 1","pages":"33 - 40"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84694581","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}

{"title":"Editors' Introduction","authors":"James L. Machor, Amy L. Blair, Yung-Hsing Wu","doi":"10.5325/reception.15.1.0001","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.5325/reception.15.1.0001","url":null,"abstract":"This issue, the fifteenth volume of Reception, is also our fifth special-topics issue. Guest edited by Amy Blair and Ika Willis, this issue approaches the temporalities of reading reception from a wide variety of disciplinary and theoretical—and experiential, and anecdotal—directions. (The impulse to offer a temporal rather than a spatial metaphor here [“durations?”] is strong, but its unavailability is one of the issues that subtends this volume). As Blair and Willis’s introduction points out, reception studies have not always been sensitive to temporalities of reading, but it does not follow that reception cannot trace reading time, as some scholars have suggested. Rather, they contend that reception is precisely the place where we might most dynamically engage with accounts of the time spent, or the perceived time of, reading—or with the difficulties inherent in reconciling the incommensurability thereof. “What is this ‘reading time’ that cannot be accounted for, is always vanishing when it’s time to be counted, that seems somehow incommensurable with the rhythms of digital life and the metrics of academic productivity?” they ask in their introduction. “What are we talking about when we talk about reading time? What are we looking for when we mourn its loss?” Reception studies approaches offer many possible ways to answer these questions, as the contributors to this volume abundantly demonstrate.This volume also marks an important moment in the history of the journal, as it is the last issue of Reception for which Jim Machor will be serving as co-editor. He will be resigning from that position in September 2023 following fourteen years in the post. Jim joined Phil Goldstein as co-editor in 2010 when the journal was being published solely in an online format. When Amy Blair was appointed to replace Phil as co-editor in 2013, she and Jim secured funding from Marquette University and Kansas State University to begin publishing Reception in its current print format under the auspices of Penn State University Press. In 2011, at the suggestion of several members of the Reception Study Society Executive Committee, Jim instituted the book review component of the journal and served as its book review editor until 2019, when Yung-Hsing Wu took over that position. Jim is especially proud of having been able to work with Amy and Yung-Hsing to make Reception the leading peer-reviewed journal in the field through the publication of original, cutting-edge research and scholarship in reception studies. Jim wants to thank the RSS and its Executive Committee for giving him this opportunity to contribute to the growth and success of Reception for nearly a decade and a half. It has been a tremendously fulfilling and enjoyable experience. That joy extends, as well, to Jim’s good fortune of being able to work with Amy Blair for eleven years as co-editors. Her editorial acumen, impeccable judgment, and consummate professionalism have made the experience especially s","PeriodicalId":40584,"journal":{"name":"Reception-Texts Readers Audiences History","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135454635","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}

Close readings support a common interpretation of the cultural work performed by the novel: that it ridicules the Tussie clan and links welfare programs to laziness. A reception study of Stuart’s archived correspondence, however, indicates that Stuart’s fans read his characters as pastoral, authentic, and endearing. Readers’ bemused and antimodernist appreciation for white hill people, understood as a category apart, transpired as part of Americans’ imaginations of race and poverty and attitudes toward public policy. In some cases, readers’ jealousy of the Tussies hint at an anti-capitalist stirring. Insights drawn from a combination of close reading, reader reception analysis, and attention to public policy over time suggest just how much the study of fiction and its audiences matters.","PeriodicalId":40584,"journal":{"name":"Reception-Texts Readers Audiences History","volume":"14 1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2022-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77568235","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}
