In this presentation, Candice will explore what a woman of the Regency, like Jane Austen, would have read to keep abreast of social and political news, fashion, literature, and theatre. The most popular magazines of the day — including the Lady’s Magazine, Ackermann’s Repository of Arts, La Belle Assemblée, the Lady’s Monthly Museum, the Gallery of Fashion, Le Beau Monde and the British Lady’s Magazine — will be discussed in terms of packaging, circulation numbers, content (including prints), editorial direction, and more.
