In July 1830 Lyon's population had rallied around its liberal newspaper and opposed the conservative Restoration government. In less than two years, however, Lyon's press and its public opinion, like those of the country as a whole, had become irrevocably fragmented. Popkin shows how the structure of the \"journalistic field\" in liberal society multiplied political conflicts and produced new tensions between the domains of politics and culture. New periodicals appeared claiming to speak for workers, for women, and for the local interests of Lyon. The public was becoming inherently plural with the emergence of new \"imagined communities\" that would dominate French public life well into the twentieth century. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJeremy Popkin is well known for his earlier studies of journalism during the eighteenth century and the French Revolution. In \u003ci\u003ePress, Revolution, and Social Identities in France\u003c\/i\u003e, he not only moves forward in time but also offers a new model for a cultural history of journalism and its relationship to literature.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jeremy D.
