We are pleased to announce the publication of Volume 9, Issue 2 of the Journal of European Periodical Studies (JEPS). This issue traverses Europe and spans three centuries, offering fresh perspectives on periodical studies.

As the editor-in-chief, Dr. Cedric van Dijck, notes:

JEPS 9.2 spotlights the latest work in periodical studies. The issue gestures across Europe and across the past three centuries. Its articles cover exciting new territory, with discussions of turn-of-the-century itinerant showpeople's periodicals, portraits of James Joyce in London's Greek newspaper Hē Hesperia, and the Hungarian periodical press—from nineteenth-century fashion magazines to avant-garde publications. And much more!
