There is a new exhibition at the Women’s Library in East London: “Between the Covers: Women’s Magazines and their Readers” chronicling the history of women’s magazines since 1600 in the U.K.. See this article on the exhibit at the Newham Recorder, and then visit the Library. Hopefully there will be a catalogue of the exhibition which opens on November 1st.
and what magazines did Jane Austen read? ….. aah! another post in the offing perhaps?? …. but in the meantime, you might want to start with this Lady’s Magazine site…
This post dovetails so nicely with one I wrote about The Lady’s Magazine! Vic

Thanks for the link Vic! I usually check your blog to link to anything you have already written on a subject (and there usually are!), but this one I posted quickly without doing that…so thanks for picking it up for me!
Best,
Deb
