List of 19th century literary periodicals is a list of literary magazines and other periodicals that were founded and/or flourished during the 19th century.
The list uses Eric Hobsbawm's "Long 19th century" corresponding to the culturally significant period between the start of the French Revolution and the beginning of the First World War, from 1789 to 1914.
The definition of a "literary periodical" is loosely defined as any magazine, journal or paper that was published on a regular basis (weekly, quarterly, etc) that contained material of literary interest to readers such as book reviews, poetry, short fiction, serialized fiction, and so on.
