| Research Abstract |
The lists of titles of articles and authors in Ainsworth's Magazine, Leigh Hunt's Journal and Leigh Hunt's Journal and the Printing Machine are respectively made. The articles are sorted into genres and written in Japanese in the lists.
The result of the research shows that the literary writers who gathered around Charles Dickens and John Forster contributed their works to the, so called, reformer's Journals, that the important literary persons tried to become the editors of Journals in order to get financial independence, and that Reformist-writers have the tendency or the influence of Unitarians. Another interesting consequence is that the research of this literary circle is closely connected with Victorian journalism. Therefore the literary criticism or research of these writers is more or less in the investigation of their activities in Victorian journalism and the system of society in the publishing world.
