Drawing on extensive original research, Paula Rabinowitz unearths the far-reaching political, social, and aesthetic impact of the pulps between the late 1930s and early 1960s"--Dust jacket. 000717787 520__ $$a"Focusing on important episodes in pulp history, Rabinowitz looks at the wide-ranging effects of free paperbacks distributed to World War II servicemen and women; how pulps prompted important censorship and First Amendment cases; how some gay women read pulp lesbian novels as how-to-dress manuals; the unlikely appearance in pulp science fiction of early representations of the Holocaust; how writers and artists appropriated pulp as a literary and visual style; and much more. Examining their often-lurid packaging as well as their content, American Pulp is richly illustrated with reproductions of dozens of pulp paperback covers, many in color"--Publisher description. 000717787 650_0 $$aPaperbacks$$zUnited States$$xHistory. 000717787 650_0 $$aPulp literature, American$$xHistory. 000717787 85200 $$bgen$$hPS374.P63$$iR33$$i2014 000717787 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:717787$$pGLOBAL_SET 000717787 980__ $$aBIB 000717787 980__ $$aBOOK
