Scott Fitzgerald’s “Winter Dreams” treat the fact that the story was initially published in an illustrated magazine as incidental. By focusing on the three almost simultaneous publications of “Winter Dreams” in illustrated magazines—the American Metropolitan (December 1922), the overlooked first publication in the Canadian MacLean’s (15 November 1922), and the British Royal Magazine (February 1923)—and Arthur William Brown, who provided all six of the North American illustrations, this article begins to offer a corrective to this oversight and argues for reading Fitzgerald’s story not simply as an evolving text but as an evolving cultural artifact framed by the means of cultural production within a specific place and time—that is, the popular magazine world during the golden age of illustration. Far from being dismissive of this context, Fitzgerald was sensitive to the ways that illustrations worked in tandem with his stories to create, in the words of Jerome McGann, “works of composite art,” and early in his career he appreciated and valued illustrators’ contributions, including Brown’s. Using correspondence from authors to illustrators, Brown’s unpublished memoirs, contemporary accounts of illustrators’ processes, and textual and visual details from the three illustrated magazines where “Winter Dreams” appeared, this article argues that our understanding of the story and of Fitzgerald’s career more broadly require consideration of the visual, cultural, and material contexts that surrounded his work.}, journal={F SCOTT FITZGERALD REVIEW}, author={Nolan, Jennifer}, year={2021}, pages={32–53} } @article{nolan_2021, title={The Clues on the Cover: Scribner, P.D.

Scott Fitzgerald's fiction in the Saturday Evening Post encountered his stories within a matrix of visual materials familiar both in format and in terms of the artists who produced them. “Bernice Bobs Her Hair,” published in the Post on May 1, 1920, is routinely recognized by scholars for helping to solidify the young Fitzgerald's reputation as a social historian for the Jazz Age and its youth. Yet the extraction of the text alone from its original site of publication has caused scholars to overlook the role of the illustrator in this process. While Fitzgerald was still relatively unknown when the story appeared, May Wilson Preston was an established artist who had been depicting, debating, and reframing young womanhood for over a decade, though she is largely unknown today. Far from being incidental, Preston's popularity and status framed and lent credibility to Fitzgerald's story about the first generation of young women granted the rights for which she and many others fought. This article examines the works of both artists to explore how the textual and the pictorial functioned together for Fitzgerald's audiences, and considers the problematic implications of the work of female illustrators being written out of American literary and cultural history.}, number={1}, journal={The Journal of Modern Periodical Studies}, publisher={The Pennsylvania State University Press}, author={Nolan, Jennifer}, year={2017}, month={Jan}, pages={56–80} } @article{nolan_2017, title={READING "BABYLON REVISITED" AS A POST TEXT: F. Scott Fitzgerald, George Horace Lorimer, and the Saturday Evening Post Audience}, volume={20}, ISSN={["1529-1499"]}, DOI={10.1353/bh.2017.0012}, abstractNote={"Babylon Revisited," universally regarded as one of F. Scott Fitzgerald's most accomplished stories, was first published in the Saturday Evening Post on 21 February 1931. Readers of the story in the Post encountered the text within a nexus of bibliographic codes – from the placement of the story in the magazine, to the illustrations that accompany it, to the advertisements and other materials that surround it, to the more general editorial context of the Post during the early days of the Depression. Yet very little scholarly attention has been paid to these textual, paratextual, and visual materials framing its publication, despite their importance in shaping contemporary reception of the work. Through an examination of how these editorial elements promoted a reading of the story that supported the ideological stance espoused by the Post in 1930-1931, I demonstrate how attention to such evidence is necessary for understanding how Fitzgerald and his works were positioned for contemporary readers and critics alike. Given the importance of the slicks in the careers of many American literary writers in the first half of the twentieth century, such an approach has far-reaching implications for our understanding of American literary history as well.}, journal={BOOK HISTORY}, author={Nolan, Jennifer}, year={2017}, pages={351–373} } @article{nolan_2017, title={Visualizing "The Rich Boy:" F. Scott Fitzgerald, F. R. Gruger, and Red Book Magazine}, volume={15}, DOI={10.5325/fscotfitzrevi.15.1.0017}, abstractNote={Although the majority of F. Scott Fitzgerald's stories were published in popular magazines with illustrations, little scholarly attention has been paid to the hundreds of images that interpreted Fitzgerald's stories or to the artists who produced them. Yet, for most of Fitzgerald's contemporary audiences, these illustrations played an essential role in how they experienced the text, particularly given the usual placement of an image preceding, and thereby framing, the narrative. One of Fitzgerald's most important stories, “The Rich Boy,” was published in two installments of Red Book Magazine in January and February of 1926, and was illustrated by F. R. Gruger, a prolific and well-respected illustrator at the peak of his career. Examining the interplay between Gruger's six illustrations and Fitzgerald's text reveals how they mutually reinforce Fitzgerald's narrative and thematic emphases through prefiguring, highlighting, and interpreting elements of the plot. By focusing on this aspect of the print culture surrounding the publication of Fitzgerald's stories, this article demonstrates the integral link between the visual and textual during this era and offers new ways of thinking about how Fitzgerald's stories were positioned for most of his contemporary readership.}, note={Project MUSE muse.jhu.edu/article/682567}, journal={The F.
