Annotation
The Gentleman's Journal was an English-language monthly newspaper founded in London by Pierre-Antoine Motteux and published from 1692-1694. The author examines issues of the publication to explore how the editorial practices and format reveal contemporary assumptions about authorship and audience during the Restoration.
