The Trojan Horse and the Printer’s Hell in 1779
A reflective polemic questions 18th century authorship and censorship. It contrasts modern writers with ancient printers, notes the abundance of authors, and explores the metaphor of publishing as a perilous voyage from the printer’s hell to public eyes. It ponders whether a periodical like The Trojan Horse existed and how risked publication proved.
