Hood was a minor literary figure, a poet and editor of magazines, who was a friend of some of the more notable littérateurs of the time such as Lamb, Hazlitt and De Quincey. He edited the London Magazine (1821–3), and with J. H. Reynolds brought out Odes and Addresses to Great People (1825), a series of satires and parodies which met with general applause.
