We are a group of sixteen students studying towards a bachelor’s degree in British and North American Studies at the University of Greifswald in Germany. This research project was conducted within the scope of our module “Applied Studies of English” under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Katrin Horn. The seminar’s aim was to utilize our theoretical knowledge of print culture in the USA and its contexts in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century to create an interactive website about the journal Town Topics. Depending on personal interest, every student engaged with the overarching topic by applying and contextualizing unique components of the database. The website intends to unite the individual projects into a concise overview and create a comprehensive foundation for interested visitors and other researchers.
