Abstract
A summary of the resource.
Nineteenth-century periodicals were the television of their day. They offered riveting serials, lifestyle recommendations, vivid illustrations by leading artists, and the inevitable advertising. They were shared among readers, who discussed their contents avidly and sometimes read them aloud to local audiences. <br /><em>All the Year Round: Exploring the Nineteenth-Century Periodical</em> tells the story of the rise of the British periodical. The exhibition charts the rapid expansion of periodical publication from the early years of the nineteenth century, when writers like Lord Byron and John Keats were reviewed and reviled, to the last decades of Queen Victoria’s reign, when ‘decadent’ journals caused controversy, the <em>Boy’s Own</em> and <em>Girl’s Own Paper</em> catered to an expanding young readership, and Sherlock Holmes’s appearance in <em>The Strand</em> inspired a devoted following across all classes. <br /><em>All the Year Round</em> takes its title from Charles Dickens’s weekly journal, which reached tens of thousands of readers and featured many of his now classic novels. The exhibition’s strongest presence comes from the satirical London journal <em>Punch</em>, whose columns and cartoons mocked prominent politicians and celebrities and shaped middle-class attitudes. Colonial spinoffs, like <em>Otago Punch</em>, soon spread across the British Empire. While the exhibition primarily features holdings from the University of Otago’s Special Collections and the Hocken Library, it also includes works kindly lent from the Dunedin Public Library and the Olga and Marcus Fitchett Collection.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
<p class="Normal1">The<em> Monthly Magazine</em> (1796-1843) first appeared under the editorship of John Aikin, and it became a favourite among liberal and radical readers. Aikin and his sister, Anna Letitia Barbauld, had collaborated on <em>Evenings at Home</em> (1792-1796), a series of stories for children, and Barbauld occasionally wrote for the<em> Monthly</em>. In the essay on display, she challenges some of Rousseau’s ideas regarding children and education. At the time, most periodicals published articles anonymously or under a pseudonym. However, the London publishing world was a small community, and the identity of regular contributors was often an open secret. Here, a previous owner has added ‘Mrs. Barbauld’ beneath the article’s title.</p>

A summary of the resource.
<em>The Union Jack</em> (1880-1883, 1894-1933) was a weekly magazine for boys. Its founding editor, the novelist W.H.G. Kingston, died only a few months after the first issue appeared. The adventure novelist G.A. Henty succeeded him. Initially, the journal struggled against its more popular competitor, the <em>Boy’s Own Paper</em>, and it folded in 1883. It was revived in 1894 by Alfred Harmsworth (later Viscount Northcliffe). The detective Sexton Blake – modelled on Sherlock Holmes – is credited with the <em>Union Jack’s</em> recovery, to the extent that, in 1933, the journal changed its name to <em>Detective Weekly.</em>

A summary of the resource.
<p class="Normal1">In 1848, Charlotte Brontë published her first novel <em>Jane Eyre</em> under the pseudonym Currer Bell. Elizabeth Rigby, writing anonymously, produced a particularly scathing review. Rigby – one of the first women to write for the <em>Quarterly</em> – declared Jane Eyre ‘a decidedly vulgar-minded woman’ and Rochester ‘a strange brute’. If the author was a woman, wrote Rigby, ‘she had long forfeited the society of her own sex’. Unaware of her reviewer’s identity, Brontë responded, “I am afraid he is no gentleman’.</p>

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
‘This will never do’. So begins one of the most notorious reviews of British Romantic poetry. Francis Jeffrey edited and regularly wrote for the <em>Edinburgh Review</em>. He had previously described William Wordsworth as a talented but misguided poet. For Jeffrey, Wordsworth’s <em>The Excursion</em>, a 400-page discursive poem set in the countryside, was the last straw: ‘The case of Mr. Wordsworth, we perceive, is now manifestly hopeless; and we give him up as altogether incurable, and beyond the power of criticism’.

<em>Punch, or the London Charivari </em>(1841-1992, revived 1996-2002) was founded by a group that included social reformer Henry Mayhew, engraver Ebenezer Landells, and journalist Mark Lemon. It quickly became known for its lively political and social satire. Early circulation figures were modest at around 6000, but by 1860 they had risen to 40,000 copies each week. Contributors included Richard Doyle, William Makepeace Thackeray, John Tenniel, and George du Maurier. <em>Punch</em> was a great supporter of the 1851 Great Exhibition at Hyde Park and is credited as the originator of the name, ‘The Crystal Palace’.

It was the world’s first illustrated weekly newspaper, visibly different from its competitors. The <em>ILN</em> initially featured a large number of wood engravings; photographic reproductions began to appear in the 1890s. The paper sold at sixpence a copy and achieved impressive circulation figures through special editions, including the celebration of the opening of the Crystal Palace in 1851, and the death of the Duke of Wellington in 1852 . The <em>ILN</em>’s reputation was confirmed by its reports and photographs from the Crimean War in 1855, when sales reached more than 200,000 copies a week.</p>

<p class="Normal1">Is this letter Jane Austen’s first appearance in print? Some scholars think so<em>. </em>The <em>Loiterer</em> was a weekly periodical launched in early 1789 by James Austen, Jane’s brother. Printed in Oxford, it lasted for about fourteen months; the final issue appeared on 20 March 1790. ‘Sophia Sentiment’ was a character in William Hayley’s comedy <em>The Mausoleum</em> (1785), a work that Jane Austen owned. This three-paragraph letter shows the spark of humour that might well have come from a teenage Jane Austen.</p>

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
A forerunner to the great periodicals of the nineteenth century, the <em>Spectator</em> was a short-lived daily publication (1711-12; 1714). Edited by Joseph Addison and Richard Steele, it was a successor to Steele’s <em>Tatler</em> (1709-1711). Articles were written by the imaginary ‘Mr. Spectator’, who offered commentary on the London social scene and introduced several members of a ‘Spectator Club’, whose ‘histories’ and ‘commentaries’ also appear in its pages. Mr. Spectator notes in the first issue, ‘I have been often told by my Friends that it is Pity so many useful Discoveries which I have made, should be in the Possession of a Silent Man…I shall publish a Sheet full of Thoughts every Morning, for the Benefit of my Contemporaries’. The number of readers is hard to quantify, since the publication was part of the London coffee house culture, and one issue could be read by hundreds.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
<p class="Normal1">The <em>Boy’s Own Paper</em> (1879-1967) was published by the Religious Tract Society to counter the effects of penny dreadful magazines with ‘pure, entertaining, and useful reading, such as should find a place on the shelves of every Boy’s Library’. At a penny a week, the journal offered wholesome, patriotic adventure fiction by the likes of R.M. Ballantyne and Jules Verne. By the end of the century, its circulation figures were almost 250,000 and its readership stretched across the British Empire. The publishers sold <em>Boy’s Own Annual </em>bindings at the end of each year – priced at between seven and nine shillings, depending upon the trim – to allow owners to collate weekly issues. The tiger featured here was the sole coloured plate of the year 1887.</p>

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
<em>The Girl’s Own Paper</em> (1880-1965) was, like its counterpart for boys, published by the Religious Tract Society. It is regarded as the most influential publication for girls of the nineteenth century, and cultural critics suggest that it played an important role in shaping ideas of girlhood. Like the <em>Boy’s Own Paper,</em> its weekly editions could be preserved in an ‘annual’ binding, which was sold at the end of each year. The publication’s contents emphasized education and self-improvement, though there were also a number of lively adventure stories. Girl readers were invited to write in with questions and contributions.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
Jane Porter was one of the most popular novelists of the early nineteenth century. Her brother, the artist and writer Sir Robert Ker Porter, served as British Consul to Venezuela in the 1830s, and Jane was anxious to promulgate her brother’s successes. To do so, she often hid her identity behind a pseudonym. This article, signed ‘A Spectator’, describes the ceremony marking the opening of the first Protestant cemetery in Venezuela. The piece appears to be the work of an eyewitness. In fact, Porter based her article on her brother’s description of the event. Robert also provided a drawing for the engraver.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
In 1859, Anthony Trollope wrote to Thackeray, the founding editor of the<em> Cornhill Magazine</em>, offering his services as a staff writer for the new periodical and suggesting that he might write five short stories. Trollope offered five short stories, but three days later George Smith, the<em> Cornhill’s</em> publisher, wrote back, offering him £1000 in exchange for a three-volume serialized novel. The first part of <em>Framley Parsonage</em> appeared just after Christmas 1859 (officially, the issue was January 1860). With illustrations by John Everett Millais, Trollope’s story of love, gambling, and theft was both eye-catching and compelling. The new magazine sold 120,000 copies in its first week, although figures later settled down to between 80 and 85,000 each week.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
Conan Doyle was able to resign from his work as a doctor from the proceeds of his Sherlock Holmes stories, yet he soon came to resent the great detective as a distraction from what he saw as his true vocation, the penning of historical novels. Doyle attempted to kill the character off in a death struggle with his evil nemesis, Professor Moriarty in ‘The Final Problem’ (1893). However, such was Holmes’s popularity, that Newnes persuaded Doyle to revive the character. Holmes returned to the pages of <em>The Strand</em> in 1901 with <em>The Hound of the Baskervilles, </em>which purported to be a retrospective narrative recounted by a grief-stricken Watson. Doyle famously resurrected his character in 1903’s ‘The Adventure of the Empty House’.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
The <em>Strand Magazine</em> (1891-1950) was founded by George Newnes, who envisioned it as a journal for the middle-class. It cost sixpence a week. The first editor, H. Greenhough Smith, was keen on publishing stories that featured a recurring hero, often a detective. This approach netted Smith a loyal cohort of readers, and the magazine became known for its crime fiction. Newnes contracted Arthur Conan Doyle to write his Sherlock Holmes tales for the<em> Strand</em>. The great detective had made his debut in <em>A Study in Scarlet, </em>published in <em>Beeton’s Christmas Annual</em> in 1887. Holmes appeared in the<em> Strand</em>’s first issue in 1891, marking the beginning of a long association with the magazine, and with Sidney Paget, the illustrator responsible for Holmes’s now-famous deerstalker hat.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
<p class="Normal1">The <em>Savoy</em> (January-December 1896), first a quarterly then a monthly, folded altogether at the end of its first year. Its eight issues were edited by the symbolist poet, Arthur Symons. It was published by Leonard Smithers, the book dealer and pornographer, best remembered as one of the few publishers willing to work with Decadent writers (including Wilde) in the aftermath of the Wilde trials. Aubrey Beardsley’s distinctive artwork is present, although there were amendments to the original cover because George Moore, a contributor, complained about a naked cherub urinating on a copy of the <em>Yellow Book</em>. Even heavy-weight contributors like Max Beerbohm, George Bernard Shaw, and W.B. Yeats could not keep the journal afloat in a climate of suspicion and fear.</p>

<p class="Normal1"><em>All the Year Round</em> (1859-1895) was founded by Dickens in response to a quarrel with his publishers, Bradbury & Evans. The new journal was strikingly similar to its predecessor, <em>Household Words</em>. Each issue began with an instalment of a novel, with Dickens effectively self-publishing both <em>A Tale of Two Cities</em> and <em>Great Expectations</em>, since he was both owner and editor of the publication<em>.</em> Authors of serials were now identified by name. Sales were typically around 100,000 copies per week, and contributors included Edward Bulwer Lytton, Frances Trollope, and Edmund Yates.</p>

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
<p class="Normal1"><em>Household Words</em> (1850-1859) was ‘conducted’ and founded by Charles Dickens in collaboration with his publishers, Bradbury & Evans. The publication featured articles dealing with social reform, emigration, and the British Empire, alongside novels in serial form. Works by Wilkie Collins, Elizabeth Gaskell, Charles Reade, and Dickens’s own <em>Hard Times</em> appeared over the years. Sales sat at around 40,000 copies per week (it was priced at tuppence per issue), although readership could triple for special holiday editions, and this figure does not account for the many working readers who would band together to buy a shared copy. All articles were published anonymously, yet the identities of featured novelists tended to be an open secret.</p>

<p class="Normal1"><em>Bentley’s Miscellany</em> (1837-1868) offered an assortment of serial fiction, short stories, historical writing, reviews (musical, culinary, and literary), and other snippets of information. Charles Dickens served as the journal’s inaugural editor, although he soon severed ties with its owner, Richard Bentley, whose interventionist approach to editing infuriated the up-and-coming novelist. This instalment of Dickens’s <em>Oliver Twist</em> features George Cruikshank’s famous illustration of Oliver asking for more. William Harrison Ainsworth succeeded Dickens as editor in 1839, and his serialized novel, <em>Jack Sheppard</em>, was even more successful than Dickens’s classic tale.</p>
