Abstract
Part Four, ‘Radio Genres,’ focuses on the multiplicity of genres that developed in radio programming during the interwar period. Part Four gathers essays that discuss the challenges inherent in writing for voices and sounds whose origins are unseen. The texts included here reflect on the new forms of expression generated by radio – including the radio talk and the feature programme as practised by the BBC, and reportage as practised elsewhere – and consider what radio can bring to the interview, to comedy, to humour and to poetry. The authors include Hans Flesch, Hermynia Zur Mühlen, Alfred Döblin, Barbara Burnham, Kurt Weill, Paul Dermée, Alex Virot, Hermann Kasack, Olive Shapley, B.E. Nicolls, Laurence Gilliam, Charles Siepmann, Desmond MacCarthy, André Saudemont, Henry Lytton, Grace Wyndham Goldie and Robert Desnos.
