"The Beginning of English Literary Periodicals: A Study of Periodical Literature, 1665-1715" provides an in-depth scholarly examination of the formative years of literary journalism in England. Covering the pivotal half-century from the Restoration to the early Georgian era, Walter James Graham meticulously traces the evolution of the periodical format from its earliest iterations in 1665 to the highly influential publications of the early 18th century. This work explores how the press transformed from a medium for basic news dissemination into a sophisticated platform for literary criticism and intellectual debate.

The study highlights key titles and figures that shaped the medium, analyzing the shift toward creative expression and social commentary. By investigating the structural and thematic developments of the period, the author demonstrates the growing synergy between writers and a burgeoning reading public. This historical analysis offers essential context for understanding the precursors to the modern magazine and the intellectual climate that supported legendary contributors like Addison and Steele. It remains a significant resource for those interested in the history of English letters, the rise of the professional author, and the development of print culture during a transformative period of Western literature.
