The Nineteenth-Century French Press and the Music Historian: Archival Sources and Bibliographical Resources

Abstract

The newspapers and periodicals occupy an unrivalled position as repositories of information about ... every imaginable topic. Their growth during the century was a direct response to demands for information, for discourse, for instruction, for propaganda, for entertainment, for platforms, each demand corresponding to a new facet of national life. One might also claim that an attitude, an opinion, an idea did not exist until it had registered itself in the press, and that an interest group, a sect, a profession, came of age when it inaugurated its journal. The newspapers and periodicals are . . . the national history at its most self conscious.'
