The Reader (weekly)
Charles Matthews: initial page
'''The Reader''' was a British weekly published from 1863 to 1866. Intended as a review journal, for both science and literature, it has been called "probably the last attempt, in Victorian England, to keep together liberal scientists, theologians, and men of letters."<ref>Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (given 1, expected 2)</ref><ref>Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (given 1, expected 2)</ref>
==History==
''The Reader''' was set up in 1862 by [[Thomas Hughes]] and [[Norman Hughes]], neighbours in [[Wimbledon]], to cover art, religion and science. The first issue appeared on 3 January 1863.<ref>Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (given 1, expected 2)</ref> It was sold in autumn 1865 to [[Thomas Bendyshe]].<ref name="SS">Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (given 1, expected 2)</ref>

While the scientific content of ''The Reader'' ended with Bendyshe's ownership, the scientific group supplying it was the milieu for the founding of ''[[Nature]]'' in 1869. For Bendyshe's interests in human diversity, [[James Hunt (speech therapist)|James Hunt]] set up as successor the ''Popular Magazine of Anthropology'' in early 1866.<ref name="SS"/>
