Product description

Author: Paweł T. Dobrowolski


Around 1730, a new medium appeared on the London press market – the most advanced in Europe: a monthly magazine, a periodical summarizing in a ‘global’ way the achievements of the daily press, ephemeral literary essays and the more hermetic tradition of scholarly writings. A new area of social interaction was created, which promoted a critical view of reality and organised the functioning of collective memory in a new way. English monthly magazines allow you to discover how Londoners lived on a daily basis, as well as what they thought about themselves and others.
