Yellow Nineties 2.0

Yellow Nineties 2.0 uses digital tools to advance knowledge of eight late-Victorian little magazines and the people who contributed to their production between 1889 and 1905: Pagan Review (1 volume, 1892) Yellow Book (13 volumes, 1894–1897) The Dial (5 volumes, 1889–1897) The Evergreen: A Northern Seasonal (4 volumes, 1895–1897) The Green Sheaf (13 issues, 1903–1904) The Pageant (2 volumes, 1896–1897) The Savoy (2 quarterly and 6 monthly issues, 1896) The Venture: An Annual of Art and Literature (2 volumes, 1903 and 1905) The data document the communities of production responsible for these little magazines, particularly by recovering the social networks of and biographical information about women and marginalized persons in those communities.

The dataset enables users to query, visualize, and analyze the relationships, connections, and social networks of magazine contributors. The Yellow Nineties project site (1890s.ca) includes two biographical tools, one discursive and the other data-driven. Essays on the life and work of a select group of magazine contributors are available in Y90s Biographies.
