Descripción Cloth, 8vo, 23 cm, 206 pp. Contents include: Introduction by Richmond P. Bond; Richard Steele, Gazetteer and Bickerstaff by Robert Wailer Achurch; The Sale and Distribution of the 'British Apollo' by William F. Belcher; The Authorship of the 'Free-Thinker' by Nicholas Joost; Essay Forms in the 'Prompter' by W.O.S. Sutherland, Jr.; The 'Female Spectator', a Courtesy Periodical by James Hodges; the Printing History of the 'World' by George P. Winship, Jr. "For the present volume the editor invited the six contributors to prepare essays. On six prominent English journals - the Tatler, British Apollo, Free-Thinker, Prompter, Female Spectator, and World - whose years of publication met each of the first six decades of the eighteenth century. The subjects of these essays illustrate the diversity of studies in the early periodic press - influence, business operation, authorship, literary form, special content, and bibliography. In an attempt to enclose such a variety of topic within a valid unity of time and medium, the editor has served as general counsel to the project and has introduced the volume and the subject with a brief survey of the republic of periodical letters in the Augustan era." Very Good. Nº de ref. del artículo: ABE-11145
