Place and the periodical: An international conference on the regional 
magazine

University of Chester, UK, 25-26 June 2024

Keynote speakers confirmed so far
•	Professor Béatrice Joyeux-Prunel, University of Geneva, leader of the 
Visual Contagions project, studying the global circulation of images in 
the 20th century
•	Joanne Goodwin, editor of Cheshire Life, the UK’s most successful 
county magazine

Magazines are usually associated with the metropolis, with capital 
cities, and with national and international movements and identities. 
But what happens to the magazine when it appears in the provinces, the 
periphery, the regions, the counties?

Equally, studies of print culture and geographical identities have 
focused mainly on the nation, occasionally on the local – but almost 
never on those administrative units between national and local: county, 
province, region, oblast, canton, département, voivodeship, federal 
state, Bundesland, etc.

We welcome proposals on topics from any nation and any period. Do join 
us in the beautiful and ancient city of Chester.

Deadline: 31 January 2024.

Andrew Hobbs, University of Central Lancashire
Naomi Walker, University of Chester
Matt Davies, University of Chester
