  • Introduction 1 Sensation Fiction and the Emergence of the Victorian
    Notes Introduction 1. Many of Reade’s works have recently been made available by Dodo Press, a subsidiary of the innovative new publisher The Book Depository in the UK. 2. The critic for the Dublin University Review stated that “the taste of the age has settled the point, that its [fiction’s] proper office is to elevate and purify” (qtd. in Page 50). The Athenaeum used the same phrase in its negative review of Collins’s Basil in which the critic writes, “the proper office of Art is to elevate and purify” (qtd. in Page 48). In his essay on Milton, Thomas Babington Macaulay praises the work of the poet for its ability “not only to delight but to elevate and purify” (28). 3. For an excellent discussion of Man and Wife, see Lisa Surridge, “Unspeakable Histories: Hester Dethridge and the Narration of Domestic Violence in Man and Wife” (Victorian Review 22.2, Winter 1996: 161–85). 4. I have not consulted first-hand the critical biography by Leone Rives, Charles Reade: sa vie, ses romans (Paris: Imprimerie Toulousaine, 1940). 1 Sensation Fiction and the Emergence of the Victorian Literary Field 1. Bachman and Cox do not provide evidence to support their statement on Reade’s possible influence on Collins although Peters also makes a similar but qualified statement, “He has sometimes been implicated in the supposed decline of Wilkie Collins’s fiction; but it is too simple to suggest that Reade took over from Dickens as Wilkie’s mentor” (282). Nicholas Rance writes of Collins that “Charles Reade, gout, and .

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or ' target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing PagB(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 thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at die upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

Catherine Hayes. Bea Holland. Asa Joel. Jon Lisle. Andrew Michell. Thomas Power. Charlotte Pyke. “Full marks to the Finborough for dusting this piece off” Evening Standard Metro Life The Finborough Theatre presents the first professional London revival for more than 70 years (we think!) of the classic Victorian theatrical comedy, Masks and Faces. Set among the theatrical world of London’s West End in the eighteenth century, Masks and Faces was inspired by the life story of the real actress Peg Woffington, best known for playing leading roles opposite David Garrick, her sometime lover. Country gentleman Ernest Vane comes to London and is seduced into the celebrity lifestyle of a group of players - discarding his new wife for the more obvious charms of the great actress Peg Woffington. In the tradition of The School for Scandal and The Rivals, Masks and Faces is a fascinating look at the 18th century theatre with characters ranging from the hapless failed playwright, Triplet, and his hungry family, to real-life writer Colley Cibber and the ghastly critics Soaper and Snarl…… First performed in 1852, and continually revived during the 19th century, Masks and Faces provided Ellen Terry with one of her first and most acclaimed leading roles.

  • ABSTRACT Fiction Based on Fact: Subversions of Power and Propriety in Charles Reade's Matter-Of-Fact Romances Amanda L. Nydegg
    ABSTRACT Fiction Based on Fact: Subversions of Power and Propriety in Charles Reade’s Matter-of-Fact Romances Amanda L. Nydegger, Ph.D. Director: James E. Barcus, Ph.D. As Charles Reade began to write It Is Never Too Late to Mend, he developed a method of research and writing that he would use throughout the remainder of his career. In the Memoir, he declares: “The plan I propose to myself in writing stories will, I see, cost me undeniable labor. I propose never to guess where I can know” (198). This obsessive drive to discover and integrate facts into his fiction can be seen in all of his novels, but none so clearly as in the five he subtitled “a matter-of-fact romance.” Since the early 1900s, Reade has been completely excluded from the literary canon, and few critics have devoted any significant attention to his works. His two long matter-of-fact romances, Hard Cash and Never Too Late have received the bulk of critical study, but these novels are too often relegated to sensation, novel-with-a-purpose, or propagandist fiction without exploring the five matter-of-fact romances together as a whole. This dissertation provides an analysis of all five matter-of-fact romances, treating them as a new genre with its own set of criteria rather than trying to pigeonhole them into traditional genres such as realism or sensation fiction. Reade uses the matter-of-fact romance to accomplish two distinct objects. First, he creates a woven fabric of intertextuality which he uses to invite readers to engage closely with the text, and through a number of different techniques he encourages the reader to remain in direct contact with his narrative.

  • 1 Adaptation, Originality and Law: Dion Boucicault and Charles
    1 Adaptation, Originality and Law: Dion Boucicault and Charles Reade, By Sarah Meer, University of Cambridge (Article accepted for publication in Nineteenth Century Theatre and Film) This article explores the legal environment in which nineteenth-century playwrights adapted from French plays and dramatised novels. It suggests that writers and managers tested legislation and created important case-law on adaptation; this was not only expensive but required significant legal knowledge. The essay pays particular attention to Charles Reade and Dion Boucicault, and suggests some ways in which the law relating to adaptation from the French may have affected the practice of adaptation, both from French dramas and from English novels. Keywords: Adaptation, Arrah-na-Pogue, Dion Boucicault, Originality, Plagiarism, Charles Reade. By the end of his career, Dion Boucicault had an unsavoury reputation. In the late 1880s, his name scarcely appeared in the press without the suggestion that he was too fond of borrowing or imitation, that his success as a playwright had never been fully deserved because his work lacked originality. As a young man in the 1840s, Boucicault had been employed by Benjamin Webster to attend the latest theatrical hits in Paris and produce English versions for the Adelphi in London; this apprenticeship in ‘adaptation from the French’, his detractors implied, had shaped his practice ever since. If so, Boucicault was the norm, rather than the exception: his career closely coincided with what William Archer dismissed as ‘the Adaptive Age’, the period between the end of the Licensing Act in 1843 and Arthur Pinero’s first plays in the 1880s, when British stages resounded with adaptations from the French, dramatic adaptations from novels, commercial imitations (versions of a play doing well at rival theatres), and provincial piracies of London hits.
