This book pioneers a branch of periodical studies that is distinctive to the concerns, contexts and media of Britain's Romantic age. Eleven chapters by leading scholars showcase the range of methodological, conceptual and literary-historical insights to be drawn from just one of the era's landmark literary periodicals, Blackwood's Edinburgh Magazine. Drawing in particular on the trove of newly digitised content, these chapters model how careful analyses of the incisive and often inflammatory commentary, criticism and original literature from Blackwood's first two decades (1817 37) might inform and expand many of the most vibrant contemporary discussions surrounding British Romanticism.
