    INFORMATION TO USERS This reproduction was made from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technology has been used to photograph and reproduce this document, the quality of the reproduction is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help clarify markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark, it is an indication of either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, duplicate copy, or copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed. For blurred pages, a good image of the page can be found in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted, a target note will appear listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photographed, a definite method of “sectioning” the material has been followed. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand comer of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete.

M.1 As morning neared, the crowd grew. Police arrived to keep order. Charles Leland re- corded: "Great excitement, Dickens' tickets."2 Henry Benners saw "a line, one square long, waiting to procure tickets to T)ickens reading."3 All tickets for the first six readings were sold in four hours, and hundreds of people were turned away.4 On January 31, after announcing the readings of February 13 and 14, Dickens wrote: "All Philadelphia is going to rush at once for tickets. Great excitement is anticipated in the streets."5 He was Philadel- phia's biggest news, under such headlines as "The Dickens Excite- ment," "The Great Novelist in Our Midst," "Another Great Read- Ing," "Brilliant Audience Assembled," and "How the Literary Feast Was Enjoyed" amid "Unbounded Enthusiasm and Loud Applause."

  • Letters of Charles Dickens: 1833–1870 Edited by Georgina Hogarth and Mary Dickens Frontmatter More Information
    Cambridge University Press 978-1-108-04004-4 - Letters of Charles Dickens: 1833–1870 Edited by Georgina Hogarth and Mary Dickens Frontmatter More information CAMBRIDGE LIBRARY COLLECTION Books of enduring scholarly value Literary Studies This series provides a high-quality selection of early printings of literary works, textual editions, anthologies and literary criticism which are of lasting scholarly interest. Ranging from Old English to Shakespeare to early twentieth-century work from around the world, these books offer a valuable resource for scholars in reception history, textual editing, and literary studies. Letters of Charles Dickens This selection from the letters of Charles Dickens (1812–70) was edited (as it says on the title page) ‘by his sister-in-law and his eldest daughter’. The former was Georgina Hogarth (1827–1917), who stayed in Dickens’ household and cared for the family when the author separated from his wife, her sister, in 1858; the latter was Mary (1838–96), known in the family as Mamie, his favourite child. They had published a three-volume edition in 1880, and a ‘New Edition’ in 1882; this reissue is of the single-volume third edition of 1893. The collection was seen as a ‘supplement’ to Forster’s life of Dickens (also reissued in this series). Inevitably, it focuses on the positive and dynamic sides of Dickens’ complex character, and gives a vivid portrait of a man juggling family life, writing, editing, travelling, amateur theatricals and public readings from his works with tremendous energy and verve. © in this web service Cambridge University Press www.cambridge.org Cambridge University Press 978-1-108-04004-4 - Letters of Charles Dickens: 1833–1870 Edited by Georgina Hogarth and Mary Dickens Frontmatter More information Cambridge University Press has long been a pioneer in the reissuing of out-of-print titles from its own backlist, producing digital reprints of books that are still sought after by scholars and students but could not be reprinted economically using traditional technology.

    Lecture № 5 The theme: ENGLISH AND AMERICAN FAMOUS WRITERS, POETS AND PLAYWRIGHTS Plan: 1. Introduction. 2. The life and creative activity of William Shakespeare. 3. The life and creative activity of Charles John Huffam Dickens. 4. The life and creative activity of Samuel Langhorne Clemens (Mark Twain). 5. The life and creative activity of Theodore Herman Albert Dreiser (Theodore Dreiser). 6. The life and creative activity of James Augustine Aloysius Joyce (James Joyce). 7. The life and creative activity of Ernest Miller Hemingway (Ernest Miller Hemingway). 8. Exercises for the consolidation of the lecture. 9. Assessment. 1. Introduction. At the end of the 20 th century new writers, poets and playwright appeared. During the 1970s and early 1980s, such writers as Greene, Lessing and Le Carre continued to produce important novels. Modern writers are creating their works in different genres and various themes. John Fowler combined adventure and mystery in such novels as “The French Lieutenant's Woman” (1969), Margaret Drabble described the complex lives of educated middle-class people in London in “The Garrick Years”(1964), “The Middle Ground”(1980) and other novels. Iris Murdoch's novels are psychological studies of upper middle-class intellectuals. The three leading English poets today are Ted Hughes, Philip Larkin, and Donald Davie. Ted Hughs produced a major work in his cycle of “Crow” poems (1970-1971). Philip Larkin's verse has been published in his collection “High 1 Windows” (1974). Many of Davie's poems were collected in “In the Stopping Train” (1977). Drama is also flourishing in today's English literature.

It was concerned with the complete works of the two authors mentioned in the title, both of them contemporary North-American writers. While I was pleased with the final result, one issue concerned me. As a result of the contemporary nature of the novels I was discussing, there were very few sources available to me. Whereas this forced me to be creative with the novels themselves — never a bad thing — it also denied me an integral part of the process of writing a research paper, that of finding and incorporating sources into my work. Not only do they add to the academic weight of a paper, sources also give rise to creativity, as they make it possible for one to offset one's own ideas against those of published scholars. Because of this, I decided that I would write my dissertation on a subject that would have no lack of sources.

  • **************************************************** the Letters of Charles Dickens. Edited by His Sister
    **************************************************** THE LETTERS OF CHARLES DICKENS. EDITED BY HIS SISTER-IN-LAW AND HIS ELDEST DAUGHTER. **************************************************** VOL. I. 1833 TO 1856. SECOND EDITION.—FIFTH THOUSAND. LONDON: CHAPMAN AND HALL, 193, PICCADILLY. 1880. TO KATE PERUGINI, THIS MEMORIAL OF HER FATHER IS LOVINGLY INSCRIBED BY HER AUNT AND SISTER. PREFACE WE intend this Collection of Letters to be a Supplement to the "Life of Charles Dickens," by John Forster. That work, perfect and exhaustive as a biography, is only in- complete as regards correspondence; the scheme of the book having made it impossible to include in its space any letters, or hardly any, besides those addressed to Mr. Forster. As no man ever expressed himself more in his letters than Charles Dickens, we believe that in publishing this careful selection from his general correspondence we shall be supplying a want which has been universally felt. Our request for the loan of letters was so promptly and fully responded to, that we have been provided with more than sufficient material for our work. By arranging the letters in chronological order, we find that they very frequently explain themselves and form a narrative of the events of each year. Our collection dates from 1833, the commencement of Charles Dickens's literary life, just before the starting of the “Pickwick Papers," and is carried on up to the day before his death, in 1870. We find some difficulty in being quite accurate in the arrangements of letters up to the end of 1839, for he had a careless habit in those days about dating his letters, very frequently putting only the day of the week on which he wrote, curiously in contrast with the habit of his later life, when his dates were always of the very fullest.

  • “Mariolatry”: Dickens's Cult of the Virgin Mary
    Dickens and“ Mariolatry”: Dickens’s Cult of the Virgin Mary Matsuto SOWA＊ “How far can an author tell a truth without seeing it himself?” (Chesterton 277) “The truth emerges in Dickens in a dialectical way by attraction and repulsion.” (Cribb, Review of The Letters 96) Introduction Dickens’s doctrinal or ideological allegiances—his religious faith and intellectual belief—are difficult questions to deal with. In his centenary tributes to Dickens’s achievements in 1970, Angus Wilson observed: “Above all, he was a devout and practising Christian, however much sectarians of all denominations raised and still raise their eyebrows at his kind of Christianity” (7). Yet, reviewing Dennis Walder’s Dickens and Religion (1981), T. J. Cribb said: Dickens went to church and said his prayers but did not believe in priests, Churches, or even the Bible, as theology; he did not believe in ritual, original sin, or salvation by conversion; he rejected missionaries, public prayer, distribution of tracts, and most religious instruction, ＊ 金城学院大学文学部教授 ① ― 97 ― 金城学院大学キリスト教文化研究所紀要 there is no evidence that he believed in hell and he is elusive about resurrection. So in what sense is he a Christian, or even religious? (Cribb, Review of Dickens 403) Certainly, one can find suggestions of Dickens’s irreverence in a letter to L. W. Morey, where he writes: because many forms of religion lead to what is practically Diabolical irreligion, I would not therefore abolish all forms of religion. Neither because the attraction of the two sexes, one towards another, occasions crime and degradation very often, am I prepared to enlist in a Crusade for the separation of the two sexes henceforth.
