Summary
Balancing entertainment and enrichment, Saint Pauls, initially captained by Anthony Trollope, dissected journalism and depicted journalists.
1. [Trollope, Anthony]. “Introduction.” 1 (1867–68): 1–7.
Characterized a magazine's editor as a “man of letters,” its contributors as those seeking recognition, and its owners as those pursuing profit. Monthlies in 1867 offered “the reading public the greatest part of the literature which it demands.” The periodical press, originally a “humorous essay” alone on a “small sheet,” became a “dry, critical review, joined with the occasional news,” then “august quarterlies” that were often partisan, and finally the “mixed pages of the monthly,” with serialized novels requisite for magazines. Public demand for this light literature did not preclude essays by noted authors. Magazines should not leave politics to newspapers but should eschew literary criticism, all too frequently of books that were an “easy mark for ridicule or for friendly praise.”
Aside that the Tatler was primarily the work of Richard Steele and the Spectator, of Joseph Addison.
2. [Dicey, Edward]. “The Tourist at Home.” 1 (1867–68): 163–71.
Confessed that newspapers repeated some leaders.
3. F[itzgerald], P[ercy]. “The Decay of the Stage.” 1 (1867–68): 173–81.
Averred that press criticism “not altogether intellectual” was gospel to theatregoers.
4. [Dicey, Edward]. “The Trade of Journalism.” 1 (1867–68): 306–18.
Defi ned journalism as an “independent and honourable trade.”
