Check List of Newspapers of the British Isles, 1665-1800 in the American Antiquarian Society Check List of Newspapers of the British Isles, 1665-1800 In the American Antiquarian Society HE American Antiquarian Society preserves English Tnewspapers only through the year 1800. Its collection is scattering, except for files of the London Cazette and of the London Chronicle. But some of its provincial newspapers, and some published in Ireland and Scotland, are scarce, possibly unique, and are worth listing. A valuable feature of the list is the recording of the names of the publishers. Only newspapers are included, and no periodicals, of which the Society has an extensive collection. None of the So- ciety's early English newspapers were listed in Crane and Kaye's Census. Of the 112 newspapers here listed, 41 are represented by no copies in this country, according to Crane and Kaye. The Crane and Kaye Census of British News- papers and Periodicals, 1620-1800, contains 970 titles which are located in American libraries, although less than one- fifth are newspapers and over four-fifths aré magazines. Published in 1927 it is still the most useful check list of American holdings. A thorough check list of English news- papers through the year 1800 would constitute a project of much historical and bibliographical value. Although it would require a vast amount of research, time, and travel, its usefulness would surely compensate for the expense involved. C. S.

  • Social and Cultural Functions of the Local Press in Preston, Lancashire, 1855-1900
    Reading the local paper: Social and cultural functions of the local press in Preston, Lancashire, 1855-1900 by Andrew Hobbs A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment for the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Central Lancashire November 2010 ABSTRACT This thesis demonstrates that the most popular periodical genre of the second half of the nineteenth century was the provincial newspaper. Using evidence from news rooms, libraries, the trade press and oral history, it argues that the majority of readers (particularly working-class readers) preferred the local press, because of its faster delivery of news, and because of its local and localised content. Building on the work of Law and Potter, the thesis treats the provincial press as a national network and a national system, a structure which enabled it to offer a more effective news distribution service than metropolitan papers. Taking the town of Preston, Lancashire, as a case study, this thesis provides some background to the most popular local publications of the period, and uses the diaries of Preston journalist Anthony Hewitson as a case study of the career of a local reporter, editor and proprietor. Three examples of how the local press consciously promoted local identity are discussed: Hewitson’s remoulding of the Preston Chronicle, the same paper’s changing treatment of Lancashire dialect, and coverage of professional football. These case studies demonstrate some of the local press content that could not practically be provided by metropolitan publications. The ‘reading world’ of this provincial town is reconstructed, to reveal the historical circumstances in which newspapers and the local paper in particular were read.

  • AUTHOR Partisan Press Coverage of Anti-Abolitionist Violence
    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 283 164 CS 210 565 AUTHOR Rutenbeck, Jeffrey B. TITLE Partisan Press Coverage of Anti-Abolitionist Violence--A Case Study of Status Quo Journalism. PUB DATE Aug 87 NOTE 32p.; Paper presented at the Annual Meeting of the Association for Education in Journalism and Mass Communication (70th, San Antonio, TX, August 1-4, 1987). PUB TYPE Reports - Research/Technical (143) -- Speeches/Conference Papers (150) EDRS PRICE MF01/PCO2 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS Blacks; Content Analysis; Media Research; *Newspapers; *News Reporting; Political Affiliation; *Press Opinion; United States History; Violence IDENTIFIERS *Abolitionism; Journalism History; Nineteenth Century ABSTRACT A study examined the conserving tendencies of the established political party press during the early stages of the antislavery movement. Eighteen partisan newspapers--from both northern and southern states--were examined for their coverage of the July 30, 1836, mob violence against James G. Birney and his Cincinnati "Philanthropist," and the November 7, 1837, shooting death of Elijah P. Lovejoy. It was hypothesized that newspapers most closely affiliated with those in political power, to preserve the status quo, would condemn the dissident press and deny the dissident editor's right to speak freely. For analysis, coverage was divided into three categories: (1) papers expressing original editorial views, (2) papers reprinting editorial views from otherpapers; and (3) papers with no coverage at all. The results indicated that all newspapers in the first category, with the exception of the New York "Evening Post," blamed the abolitionist editors for the violence, and the majority of newspapers in the second category reprinted material blaming the editors. The results also indicated that in both categories 1 and 2, the papers with the most demonstrable ties to established parties ignored freedom of the press issues and fervently blamed and opposed the abolitionist editors.

  • Nicholson, Hannah (2019) Print and Politics in the East Midlands
    Print and Politics in the East Midlands Constituencies c.1790-1832 Hannah Nicholson Thesis submitted to the University of Nottingham for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy September 2018 Abstract This thesis is an examination of printed political ephemera, produced and distributed during election canvasses between 1790 and 1832. Previous studies have highlighted the popular, public nature of election rituals during the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, although, to date, few have fully appreciated the level and range of printed literature produced during the course of canvassing. This thesis uses a broad range of printed and manuscript evidence including political ephemera, local newspapers, election receipts, and correspondences from borough and county elections, highlighting the level of work which went into orchestrating a canvass in the unreformed era, especially by candidates, their political agents, and printers. The focus of this study is the borough and county constituencies of Derbyshire, Leicestershire, and Nottinghamshire, with particular emphasis on borough elections. Between 1790 and 1832, this region, along with the rest of the country, underwent profound social and political change, and so this thesis not only acts as an important test case for the operation of local political culture nationally, but also represents the first comprehensive study of printed electoral culture for the region. The central premise of this thesis is fourfold. Firstly, it aims to reinstate the importance of printed canvasses to the study of political culture and electoral politics, which have often been seen as secondary to the local press. Secondly, it argues that, such was the fast paced nature of elections and electioneering that, in comparison to provincial newspapers, handbills, broadsides, songs and i ballads offered a much more versatile form of communication between candidates and voters.
