Quarterly Review
Quarterly Review. This was the Tory riposte to the very successful Edinburgh Review, which had been launched in 1802. It was started in 1809 by Sir Walter Scott, George Ellis, and John Wilson Croker, with William Gifford as editor. The early contributors included Canning and Robert Southey. By the middle of the century the taste for magisterial, learned, and lengthy reviews was beginning to decline.
