The New-England Magazine was a monthly literary magazine published in Boston, Massachusetts , from 1831 to 1835.
Overview
The magazine was published by Joseph T. Buckingham and his son Edwin. The first edition was published in July 1831, and it published a total of 48 editions. After its final issue, in December 1835, the magazine merged with the New York -based American Monthly Magazine .
The magazine has been described as "one of antebellum America's few worthwhile literary journals". [1] Its contributors included Nathaniel Langdon Frothingham , Henry Wadsworth Longfellow , Edward Everett , and Samuel Gridley Howe . Beginning in November 1831, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. included two of the essays that evolved into his " The Autocrat of the Breakfast-Table " series, which became his most popular prose works. [2] Several of Nathaniel Hawthorne 's early short stories were published in the magazine, including " The Ambitious Guest " (November 1835) and " The Great Carbuncle " (December 1835). [3]
The magazine has no connection to The New England Magazine , a Boston publication published from 1884 to 1917.
