| Author: | JUNIUS: |
|---|
| Title: | LETTERS |
|---|
| Publisher: | LONDON. G. WOODFALL. 1814 |
|---|
| Description: | Junius was the pseudonym of a writer who contributed a series of political letters to the Public Advertiser, from January 21, 1769 to January 21, 1772. Junius himself had been aware of the advantage and increased importance he secured by concealment, a fact he confessed in a letter to Wilkes dated September 18, 1771. His calculation was a sound one; generations after the appearance of the letters, speculations as to the authorship of Junius were rife and discussions had hardly ceased in 1910. Revealing the identity of Junius requires a lot more thought. His reputation, written mostly by his opponents, is far from resolved - especially when they slide into easy dismisals of Junius' content by attributing authorship to individuals like Sir Philip Francis. |
