About Edmund Hodgson Yates Author Of Mirth And Metre Pdf Book
Edmund Hodgson Yates Author Of Mirth And Metre Pdf was born July 3, 1831 in London. He was an English journalist and novelist who made respectable both the gossip column and the society paper.
The son of the actor Frederick Henry Yates and the actress Elizabeth Yates, Edmund Hodgson Yates began working at age 16 in the London general post office and rose to become head of the missing-letters department before retiring in 1872. In the early 1850s he began writing criticism and poetry for various popular journals and then began working as an editor while collaborating in the writing of theatrical farces. He also became a familiar figure in literary and artistic circles. It was as a columnist for the Illustrated Times, in 1855, that Yates first introduced a steadily appearing column of gossip about public personalities. Entitled “The Lounger at the Clubs,” it proved a great success.
In the 1860s and ’70s Yates edited various popular journals, including Temple Bar, Tinsley’s Magazine, and Time. In 1874 he founded, with Grenville Murray, the first relatively respectable society paper, The World. This was a journal reporting the activities and associations of socially prominent persons. As editor, Yates strove to elevate The World above the level usual for this type of publication—i.e., that of a scurrilous and scandalous journal used by the editors for making libelous personal attacks in the course of satisfying their own and their friends’ vendettas. The World proved to be quite successful, although Yates was briefly imprisoned at one point for a libel he made in it.
