Henry Fielding and the Press : A Study on the Formation of Political Culture in Eighteenth-Century Britain

本研究试图从出版史的角度对亨利·菲尔丁的政治小册子和他所在报纸的领导人进行全面的分析，并揭示18世纪英国政治文化形成的一些方面。聚焦于1745年雅各布派崛起期间的政治争论，我展示了他如何发展辉格党关于政治宪法和宗教的思想，以及媒体如何对待雅各布派事业。

This study was an attempt to analyse Henry Fielding's political pamphlets and leaders of his own newspapers comprehensively in terms of the press history and to illuminate some aspects of the formation of political culture in eighteenth-century Britain. Focusing on the political argument during the Jacobite Rising of 1745, I demonstrated how he developed the Whig ideas about the political constitution and religion and how the press treated the Jacobite cause.
