The Monthly Review (1749–1845) was an English periodical founded by
The Critical Review.[2] William Kenrick, the "superlative scoundrel", was editor from 1759 to 1766.[3]
Publishing history of The Monthly Review
- Volumes 1–81, May 1749 – December 1789;
- {2d ser.} v. 1–108, January 1790 – November 1825;
- new {3d} ser., v. 1–15, January 1826 – December 1830;
- new {4th} ser., v. 1–45, January 1831 – December 1844. (The four-month volumes in this series are numbered I, II, and III on the title page, restarting at I each January, but some libraries and indexes number the volumes continuously from 1831.)
Many libraries have incorrectly cataloged the periodical as the London Monthly Review.[4]
Format
Each issue of the Monthly was divided into two sections: longer reviews of several pages were in the front section, short reviews of lesser works were featured in the back Monthly Catalogue, divided by genre headings.
