Powell embraces periodicals across the first two-thirds of the eighteenth century to argue that this mode of writing, packed with humor and verve, originates the figure of the mass-market author as a literary character. Powell posits that, at the same time, periodicals harbor inescapable doubts as to whether such a character, and by extension their own genre, is sustainable in the long term. 410 0$aTransits (Bucknell University) 606 $aEnglish periodicals$xHistory$y18th century 606 $aEnglish prose literature$y18th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aPeriodicals$xPublishing$zGreat Britain$xHistory$y18th century 615 0$aEnglish periodicals$xHistory 615 0$aEnglish prose literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aPeriodicals$xPublishing$xHistory 676 $a828/.509 700 $aPowell$b Manushag N$01597246 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910823686003321 996 $aPerforming authorship in eighteenth-century English periodicals$93918934 997 $aUNINA
