This book provides a historical study on the evolution of editorial style and its progress towards standardisation through an examination of early modern English style guides. The text considers the variety of ways authors, editors and printers directly implemented or uniquely interpreted and adapted the guidelines of these style guides as part of their inherently human editorial practice. Offering a critical mapping of early modern style guides, Jocelyn Hargrave explores when and how style guides originated, how they contributed to the evolution of editorial practice and how they impacted the overall publishing of content.
Jocelyn Hargrave teaches writing, editing and publishing at Monash University, Australia, and the University of Melbourne, Australia. Her current research relates to colonial Australian print culture. She has worked in the educational publishing industry for twenty-two years, twenty as an editor.
