"In this study, Mark Parker proposes that literary magazines should be an object of study in their own right. He argues that magazines such as the London Magazine, Blackwood’s Edinburgh Magazine, and the New Monthly Magazine, offered an innovative and collaborative space for writers and their work, indeed, magazines became one of the preeminent literary forms of the 1820s and 1830s. Examiningthe dynamic relationship between literature and culture which evolved within this context, Literary Magazines and British Romanticism claims that writing in such a setting enters into a variety of alliances with other contributions and with ongoing institutional concernsthat give subtle inflection to its meaning. The book provides the only extended treatment of Lamb’s Elia essays, Hazlitt’s Table-Talk essays, “Noctes Ambrosianae,” and Carlyle’s Sartor Resartus in their original contexts, and should be of interest to scholars of culturaland literary studies as well as Romanticists."

"During the eighteenth century British critics believed that masculine values represented the best literature while feminine terms signified less important works or authors. Laura Runge argues that an understanding of the language of eighteenth-century criticism requires careful analysis of the gendered language of the era. Her exploration of why, for example, the heroic and the sublime were seen as masculine modes while the novel was viewed as a feminine genre addresses issues central to eighteenth-century studies that are still relevant today."
