Engraving by Charles A. E. Turner (1836) of a Priestley portrait commissioned by Joseph Johnson from Henry Fuseli (c. 1783).
The Theological Repository was a periodical founded and edited from 1769 to 1771 by the eighteenth-century British polymath Joseph Priestley . Although ostensibly committed to the open and rational inquiry of theological questions, the journal became a mouthpiece for Dissenting , particularly Unitarian and Arian , doctrines.
Priestley promised to print all viewpoints, but only like-minded authors ever submitted articles. He was therefore forced to provide much of the journal's content himself. After only a few years, due to a lack of funds, he was forced to cease publishing the journal.[1] About a decade later, in 1784, Priestley revived the Theological Repository , but he again became responsible for much of the journal's content and again the journal became insolvent after several issues (1784, 1786, 1788).[2]
Joseph Johnson , Priestley's close friend and publisher, was responsible for issuing the journal. Dedicated to the Unitarian cause, he bore much of the financial burden of the enterprise.[3]
