Household words, no. 304, January 19, 1856 : A weekly journal by Charles Dickens
"Household Words, no. 304, January 19, 1856: A Weekly Journal by Charles Dickens" is an issue of a weekly magazine published in the 1850s. This tuppenny periodical brought fiction, social commentary, and serialized novels to middle-class Victorian readers every Saturday. Named after a line from Shakespeare's Henry V, it featured unsigned articles on social issues alongside literary works by prominent writers including Elizabeth Gaskell and Wilkie Collins. Under Dickens's editorial control, the
journal aspired to enter readers' homes as "comrade and friend," addressing the stirring social wonders of mid-Victorian England. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
