British Writers, Popular Literature and New Media Innovation, 1820-45
The period between 1820 and 1845 is often interpreted as a transitional phrase between the Romantic and Victorian periods. Some individual writers working in this era– for example, Felicia Hemans, Charles Dickens, and Thomas Carlyle– have received significant critical attention, but many other new media innovators of the period have been neglected in histories of nineteenth-century literature.

In the History, Martineau provides a somewhat depersonalized account …

So begins Maria Weston Chapman's 1877 homage to The Knoll, Harriet Martineau's Ambleside home. By the 1870s The Knoll had become a regular stop on literary tours of the Lake District. This was of course partly due to the fact that Martineau's literary reputation had established her as a central figure in most major political and s…
