Edinburgh Review
Edinburgh Review. The review was founded in 1802 by Henry Erskine and Francis Jeffrey, the latter as editor for the first 26 years. Constable in Edinburgh and Longman's in London were the publishers. It followed a somewhat radical Whig line and its contributors included Henry Brougham, Francis Horner, Sydney Smith, Macaulay, and Thomas Carlyle. ‘To be an Edinburgh Reviewer’, wrote Hazlitt, ‘is, I suspect, the highest rank in modern literary society.’ Though its great days were in the 1830s and 1840s, it survived until 1929.
