The 1910 Collection
LondonNew YorkFlorence: various publishers
1910-03 - 1912-04
Virginia Woolf famously observed that “on or about
December 1910 human character changed” — by which she meant to locate the
shift to modernism at the end of the reign of King Edward VII and the
beginning of the reign of King George V. To assist teachers and students
studying this transitional moment, the MJP offers this collection of sample
issues of British and American periodicals from 1910 and 1911, plus one from
1912. These samples are here mainly to provide a perspective on what was
being thought, said, pictured, and advertised in both Britain and America at
the moment when “human character changed.” Please note that, in addition to
the issues in this special collection, there are other magazines from 1910
and 1911 among those in our archive of individual journals.
