Summary
With a multicultural bent, the British and Foreign ranged from domestic press taxes to European press censorship.
1. [Bird, Christopher]. “Introduction.” 1 (1835): 5–16.
Declared that the British and Foreign planned “as much to learn as to teach” about many topics from an international perspective in contrast to other reviews “conducted with partial and limited views.”
2. [Brougham, Henry]. “Lord Brougham's Speech: Taxes on Knowledge.” 1 (1835): 157–72.
Brougham repeated his ideas that the high cost and pre-payment of a newspaper stamp deprived the public of essential knowledge. The established press ignored the subject or warned that repeal would bring “seditious and blasphemous papers.” Owners of top metros feared that cheap papers would rob them of advertising profits. Because London gazettes “give a tone in good measure to the Provincial Press,” readers thought repeal was unimportant or dangerous. London papers also influenced MPs, particularly those from rural areas. However, “the respectable and intelligent middle classes” thought for themselves and read country papers that were “less tainted.” Since illegal malicious and treasonous papers already existed, new inexpensive ones would be an improvement. Pleaded also for lowering the paper duty. See New Monthly Magazine 44: 485.
3. “France.” 1 (1835): 492–512.
Deplored recent French “laws against the press,” laws violating Louis Philippe's principles and promises at accession.
4. “Lord Bolingbroke.” 2 (1836): 209–32.
Alluded to the writing style of Henry St. John in the Craftsman.
