Not surprisingly therefore the French Revolution and the French Revolutionary War, impacting as they did on British domestic politics, had a huge influence on what the British press produced in the years between 1789 and 1802.

  • Bibliography of Studies of Eighteenth-Century Journalism and the Periodical Press, 1986-2009
    Bibliography of Studies of Eighteenth-Century Journalism and the Periodical Press, 1986-2009 This bibliography surveys scholarship published from 1986 to 2009 on journalism, diverse serials (including almanacs), and the periodical press throughout the Europe and the Americas during the "long eighteenth century," approximately 1660-1820. It is most inclusive for the years 1990-2007, in consequence of my compiling studies of that period for Section 1--"Printing and Bibliographical Studies"--of the ECCB: Eighteenth-Century Current Bibliography, until recently known as The Eighteenth Century: A Current Bibliography. It focuses on printed publications, but a few electronic publications have been included. Dissertations and book reviews also are included. For suggestions and corrections, I am indebted to Professor James E. Tierney. In Spring 2003, I learned of many publications, particularly on German periodicals, from Mr. Harold Braem of Hildesheim, who has provided me with titles in his Historische Zeitungen: Privatarchiv der deutschsprachigen Presse des 17.-19. Jahrhunderts. Later, others, such as Marie Mercier-Faivre, Eric Francalanza, Rudj Gorian, and Charles A. Knight, have called attention to errors and overlooked studies. Of course, I am also indebted to many published bibliographies, most especially those by Diana Dixon published in inter-related annual serials: Journal of Newspaper and Periodical History (London, 1984-1994), Studies in Newspaper and Periodical History (Westport, CT: Greenwood, 1994-1997), Media History (1999-2002). I have also drawn upon Kim Martin Long's checklists in issues of American Periodicals, and various annual bibliographies dedicated to literature in specific languages, the most useful being MHRA's Annual Bibliography of English Language and Literature, with its inclusive chapter on periodicals.

  • MO Grenby. Writing Revolution: British Literature
    The definitive version of this article is published by Blackwell as: M. O. Grenby. Writing Revolution: British Literature and the French Revolution Crisis, a Review of Recent Scholarship. Literature Compass 2006, 3 (6), 1351-1385 http://www3.interscience.wiley.com/journal/118578169/abstract Writing Revolution: British Literature and the French Revolution Crisis, a Review of Recent Scholarship 1 M. O. Grenby Abstract The French Revolution had a profound effect on almost all aspects of British culture. French events and ideas were avidly discussed and disputed in Britain. Long-standing British political and cultural debates were given new life; new socio-political ideologies rapidly emerged. The sense of political, religious and cultural crisis that developed in the 1790s was only slowly to dissipate. Generations afterwards, many British thinkers and writers were still considering and renegotiating their responses. The effect of the Revolution Crisis on British literature was particularly marked, something that was widely recognised at the time and has been the focus of much scholarship since. It has become something of a cliché that British literary Romanticism was born out of the Revolution. The last few decades have produced new waves of powerful criticism which has re-examined the relationship between the Revolution Crisis and the works it shaped. Different strands of radical writing have now received detailed investigation, as have equally complex conservative responses. Writing by and for women is now receiving as much attention as writing by men, and previously neglected forms, such as the popular novel, pamphlets and children's literature, are now the subject of an increasing number of studies.

  • Women's Textual and Narrative Power
    IN HER HANDS: WOMEN’S TEXTUAL AND NARRATIVE POWER IN THE ROMANTIC NOVEL by SARAH PAIGE ELLISOR-CATOE (Under the Direction of Roxanne Eberle) ABSTRACT This project examines the hybridity of the Romantic novel through the twin lenses of feminist and corporeal narratology. Romantic women novelists, in particular, manipulate narrative forms; these innovations often place a woman editor at the heart of the narratives and plots of novels, a role that reflects the increasing status of actual women editors during the period. To this end, Romantic women novelists emphasize the real and tangible nature of embedded texts and often put these embedded texts in women’s hands, a convention that I argue stresses women’s textual and narrative power. I survey how the embedded text legislates power for these women editor figures throughout the sub-genres of the Gothic, historical, and epistolary novels. Though my project is specifically a study of the narrative structure of the Romantic novel, I examine the long-ranging influence of these narrative experiments in the genre by linking these novels to Bram Stoker’s Dracula.

White Rose Research Online [email protected] Anthologizing the Book of Nature: The Circulation of Knowledge and the Origins of the Scientific Journal in Late Georgian Britain Jonathan R. Topham1 Writing in the preface to a new monthly journal of science in 1813, the Scottish chemist Thomas Thomson observed that the ‗superiority of the moderns over the ancients‘ consisted ―not so much in the extent of their knowledge [...] as in the degree of its diffusion‖.2 This advance in the circulation of knowledge, he averred, was to a significant extent a consequence of the inception of moveable-type printing. More especially, it had been promoted by the periodical publications which existed in such profusion in Britain, France, and Germany, and most particularly by the new kinds of commercially produced ―philosophical‖ journals that had emerged during the last quarter of the eighteenth century and began to be called ‗scientific‘ journals from the turn of the century.

For the opinions expressed the writer alone is responsible. His aim has been to give some account of the work during two centuries of a small group of religious thinkers, who, for the most part, have been overlooked in the records of English religious life, and so rescue from obscurity a few names that deserve to be remembered amongst pioneers and pathfinders in more fields than one. Obligations are gratefully acknowledged to the Rev. V. D. Davis. B.A., and the Rev. W. H. Burgess, M.A., for a few fruitful suggestions, and to the Rev. W.

  • The Paradox of Effeminized Masculinity and the Crisis of Authorship Lisa Butler Wilfrid Laurier University
    The Paradox of Effeminized Masculinity and the Crisis of Authorship Lisa Butler Wilfrid Laurier University Making a eacle out of oneself seemed a ecifically feminine danger. e danger was of an exposure. Men, I learned somewhat later in life, “exposed themselves,” but that operation was quite deliberate and circumscribed. For a woman, making a eacle out of herself had more to do with a kind of inadvertency and loss of boundaries. Mary Russo, e Female Grotesque “O come (a voice seraphic seems to say) Fly that pale form—come sisters! come away. Come, from those livid limbs withdraw your gaze, ose limbs which Virtue views in mute amaze; Nor deem, that Genius lends a veil, to hide e dire apostate, the fell suicide.” Richard Polwhele, e Unsex’d Females Godwin’s Memoirs of Wollstonecraft roughout his anti-feminist satire, e Unsex’d Females, Richard Polwhele constructs a clear dichotomy between a female authorial subject whose literary activities do not compromise the operation of a femininity “to NATURE true” () and the “unsex’d” female author whose literary pur- suits render her monstrous, deviant, and, above all, “unnatural.” Although Polwhele attacks (and simultaneously constructs) the generic category of ESC .– (June/September ): – Butler.indd 77 2/21/2007, 8:38 AM the “unsex’d” female author throughout his poem, he reserves his most virulent satire for Mary Wollstonecraft, author of the radical text, A L B is a Vindication of the Rights of Men, and its feminist counterpart of two years doctoral student later, A Vindication of the Rights of Woman. Presenting her as the “intrepid at Wilfrid Laurier champion of her sex” () and as leader of her band of “unsex’d” female University, enrolled followers, Polwhele represents Wollstonecraft as a pathological aberration, in the joint in a vision of bodily disease and moral sickness that threatens the “healthy” Literary Studies/ state of femininity best embodied by the “seraphic” Hannah More ().

Romantic Periodicals and the Invention of the Living Author Abstract ROMANTIC PERIODICALS AND THE INVENTION OF THE LIVING AUTHOR Christine Marie Woody Michael Gamer This dissertation asks how the burgeoning market of magazines, book reviews, and newspapers shapes the practice and meaning of authorship during the Romantic period. Surveying the innovations in and conventions of British periodical culture between 1802 and 1830, this study emphasizes the importance of four main periodicals—the Edinburgh Review, Quarterly Review, London Magazine, and Blackwood’s Edinburgh Magazine—to the period’s understanding of what it means to be, or read, an author who is still living. In it, I argue that British periodicals undertook a project to theorize, narrativize, and regulate the deceptively simple concept of a living author. Periodicals confronted the inadequacy of their critical methods in dealing with the living and came to define the “living author” as a disturbing model for the everyday person—an encouragement to self-display and a burden on public attention. Through their engagement with this disruptive figure, periodical writers eventually found in it a potential model for their own contingent, anonymous work, and embraced the self-actualizing possibilities that this reviled figure unexpectedly offered.
