Birmingham Journal (eighteenth century) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Birmingham Journal (eighteenth century)
The ''Birmingham Journal'' was the first newspaper known to have been published in Birmingham, England. Little is known of it as few records remain, but a single copy survives in Birmingham Central Library: Number 28, dated Monday May 21, 1733. It is assumed from this that the first edition was probably published 14 November 1732. ==Background==
The newspaper was published weekly (on Thursday) by local businessman and bookseller Thomas Warren from his house over the Swan Tavern in the High Street.〔 p. 134〕 Among its contributors was Samuel Johnson, whose work for the ''Journal'' while he was lodging with Warren in Birmingham in 1733 was his first original published writing. James Boswell wrote of this in his ''Life of Johnson'': Publication of the ''Birmingham Journal'' is known to have ceased by 1741.
