In December 1840, Charlotte Bronte wrote in a letter to Hartley
Coleridge that she wished 'with all [her] heart' that she 'had been
born in time to contribute to the Lady's magazine'. Nearly two
centuries later, the cultural and literary importance of a monthly
publication that for six decades championed women's reading and
women's writing has yet to be documented. This book offers the
first sustained account of The Lady's Magazine. Across six chapters
devoted to the publication's eclectic and evolving contents, as
well as its readers and contributors, The Lady's Magazine (1770
1832) and the Making of Literary History illuminates the
periodical's achievements and influence, and reveals what this
vital period of literary history looks like when we see it anew
through the lens of one of its most long-lived and popular
publications.
