What’s black and white and read all over? This course considers what it was like to make and read the news in eighteenth-century London. Students will gain a sense of eighteenth-century newspapers’ importance in forming public opinion concerning historic events and social ideas. From longform journalism and the periodical essay to issues of authorship including editorializing, anonymity, and pseudonymity; from Parliamentary reporting to arts reviewing practices; and from reporting on weather and celebrities to advertising infallible cures, we will read all about it.
