Literary societies were popular in the 19th century but had their heyday in the 1840s and 1850s in America.  Members were required to write and present on current topics and their membership fees in part supported the purchase of books for member use. The Erosophian Literary Society (possibly from the Latin for “love of wisdom”) was student-organized and regulated.
