  • Marketing Literature and Posthumous Legacies

    The Symbolic Capital of Leonid Andreev and Vladimir Nabokov

    Literature is not only about aesthetics, but also almost equally about economics. The successful marketing of an author and his literary works is more dependent on the activities of cultural merchants than on the particular words and phrases found in the author’s prose. Marketing Literature and Posthumous Legacies focuses on the creation of symbolic capital for the literary legacies of Leonid ... Read more
