As we celebrate the centennials of F. Scott Fitzgerald's works, this volume offers a timely new approach to the short stories of the Poet Laureate of the Jazz Age. Foregrounding reception, this volume is the first to bring together and reprint all of the magazine texts of the eighteen stories Fitzgerald published in American magazines between 1921 and 1924 replicating, as closely as possible, the version of Fitzgerald's texts that were available to American audiences. Drawing attention to the nine different magazines where his stories appeared, this collection emphasises the size, scope and power of the American magazine market as the Jazz Age began, and situates Fitzgerald's works within the contexts where they were read by his largest audiences and where his reputation as a social historian was created, appreciated and solidified.
Alexandra Mitchell spent a decade collecting the complete short stories of F. Scott Fitzgerald. She uses digital humanities techniques to illuminate their historical contexts for the contemporary reader. She received her undergraduate degree in Social and Political Sciences from the University of Cambridge and her Master's degree in Information Technology from the University of Glasgow. Jennifer Nolan is Associate Professor of English at North Carolina State University. She has published widely on the literary, cultural, editorial and visual contexts of popular American magazines in the interwar era, with special emphasis on F. Scott Fitzgerald, short stories and illustration. Her recent work has appeared in the F. Scott Fitzgerald Review, Book History, American Periodicals and the Journal of Modern Periodical Studies. She serves on the board of the F. Scott Fitzgerald society.
