  • Access to Justice: Keeping the Doors Open Transcript
    Access to Justice: Keeping the doors open Transcript Date: Wednesday, 20 June 2007 - 12:00AM ACCESS TO JUSTICE: KEEPING THE DOORS OPEN Michael Napier Introduction In this Reading I would like to explore the various doors that need to be located, and then opened, if people are to gain access to justice. Obtaining access means negotiating an opening, so it is appropriate that this evening we are gathered together at Gresham's College, described in Claire Tomalin's biography of Samuel Pepys [1] as the 'first Open University'. In 1684, when Pepys was its President, the Royal Society used to meet at Gresham's College for open discussion, studying the evidence of experiments that would prise open the doors of access to scientific knowledge. But access to legal knowledge is very different from the formulaic precision of a scientific experiment, and those who seek access to justice need to know how to negotiate the route. It is not easy. As we all made our way here this evening along Holborn to the ancient splendour of Barnard's Inn Hall we were actually following in the footsteps of the many citizens who have trodden for centuries the footpaths and byways of Holborn, pursing access to justice: 'London 1853. Michaelmas term lately over. Implacable November weather. As much mud in the streets as if the waters had but newly retired from the face of the earth and it would not be wonderful to meet a Megalosaurus waddling... up Holborn hill. Fog everywhere. And hard by Temple Bar in Lincoln's Inn Hall at the very heart of the fog sits the Lord High Chancellor..

  • And Nineteenth-Century Reading Cultures Nicole C. Peters A
    Novel Epistemologies: Rereading Eighteenth- and Nineteenth-Century Reading Cultures Nicole C. Peters A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2019 Reading Committee: Charles LaPorte, Chair Juliet Shields Jeffrey Knight Program Authorized to Offer Degree: English ©Copyright 2019 Nicole C. Peters University of Washington Abstract Novel Epistemologies: Rereading Eighteenth- and Nineteenth-Century Reading Cultures Nicole C. Peters Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Charles LaPorte Department of English This dissertation examines how eighteenth- and nineteenth-century reading cultures are reflected in contemporary academic and popular trends and ways of reading. I argue that we re- conceive how literary value is arbitrarily structured by ideological formations of power. Like twenty-first-century literary scholars, eighteenth- and nineteenth-century readers were very much interested in the relationship between texts and their readers. By historicizing eighteenth- and nineteenth-century discussions of ‘good’ and ‘bad’ reading practices, and ‘good’ and ‘bad’ genres, it becomes clear how ambiguous these categories still remain. Ultimately, my dissertation tracks ideological trends in the history of reading the novel, generating a discussion that resists traditionally linear narratives about taste and value production across historical reading cultures. Chapter One examines scenes of reading in novels from the mid-eighteenth century and early nineteenth century in order to track how popular ‘early’ novelists distinguish between ethical and affective frameworks in conversations of ‘good’ and ‘bad’ reading. Tracing these distinctions demonstrates how a problematically gendered lens of literary taste informs twentieth- and twenty-first century discussions about professional and recreational reading binaries.

  • The Tumultuous Life of England's Greatest Novelist, Beautifully Rendered by Unparalleled Literary Biographer Claire Tomalin. T
    The tumultuous life of England’s greatest novelist, beautifully rendered by unparalleled literary biographer Claire Tomalin. When Charles Dickens died in 1870, the Times of London successfully THE ALL-IN-ONE AUDIOBOOK campaigned for his burial in Westminster Abbey, where thousands flocked to mourn the best recognized and loved man of nineteenth-century England. His books had made them laugh, shown them the squalor and greed of English life and also the power of personal virtue and the strength of ordinary people—through the likes of David Copperfield, Oliver Twist, Little Nell, and many more. Like a hero from his novels, Dickens trod a hard path to greatness. Yet with extraordinary speed and energy, he made himself into the greatest English novelist of the century. Charles Dickens: A Life gives full measure to Dickens’s heroic stature while observing his failings with an unblinking eye. Renowned literary biographer Claire Tomalin crafts a story worthy of Dickens’s own pen, a comedy that turns to tragedy as the very qualities that made him great finally destroyed him. The man who emerges is one whose vices and virtues were intertwined as surely as his life and his art. Claire Tomalin was literary editor of the New Statesman and then the Sunday Times before devoting herself to writing full time. She is the author of eight highly acclaimed biographies, including Thomas Hardy, The Invisible Woman, and Samuel Pepys, which was the 2002 Whitbread Book of the Year. She lives in England with her husband. Alex Jennings is an associate actor with the RSC and has also worked with the Royal National Theatre.

MAKING IT IN AMERICA: HOW CHARLES DICKENS AND HIS CUNNING MANAGER GEORGE DOLBY MADE MILLIONS FROM A PERFORMANCE TOUR OF THE UNITED STATES, 1867-1868 by JILLIAN MARTIN Under the Direction of Leonard Teel, PhD ABSTRACT Charles Dickens embarked on a profitable journey to the United States in 1867, when he was the most famous writer in the world. He gave seventy-six public readings, in eighteen cities. Dickens and his manager, George Dolby, devised the tour to cash in on his popularity, and Dickens earned the equivalent of more than three million dollars. They created a persona of Dickens beyond the literary luminary he already was, with the help of the impresario, P.T. Barnum. Dickens became the first British celebrity to profit from paid readings in the United States.

  • The Invisible Woman: the Story of Charles Dickens & Nelly Ternan by Claire Tomalin (Knopf, 1995) Rev. by Naomi Bliven Toma
    The Invisible Woman: The Story Of Charles Dickens & Nelly Ternan by Claire Tomalin (Knopf, 1995) Rev. by Naomi Bliven Tomalin’s is a judiciously sympathetic biography of Charles Dickens’ mistress, Ellen Lawless Ternan. It recounts, in an easy, conversational style, the facts that survived a conspiracy of concealment by Dkkens, Nelly, and their heirs—a conspiracy that eradicated almost every trace of the young woman with whom the middle-aged novelist fell in love. Dickens started burning letters in his lifetime; more bonfires followed his funeral, in 1870, and the funerals of friends and family. Dickens’ intimates (John Forster, his friend, biographer, and executor) knew Nelly, and his acquaintances (Longfellow, Browning) knew about her, but in print nineteenth-century discretion prevailed well into the twentieth. Ms. Tomalin admits that there is much we may never learn, but she has managed to recover a real human being. Without exaggerating Nelly’s gifts—”In the scale of things Nelly is not an important person. No one would have begun to think about her were it not for Dickens”—the author convinces us that the small, blue-eyed blonde we see in contemporary photographs was an intelligent, cultivated, articulate woman. In this thoughtful account, Dickens’ Nelly turns out to be no Dark Lady but a Victorian Good Woman who became mysterious because she thought she was a Fallen Woman. Before Ellen Ternan disappeared into her lover’s life and custody, she was highly visible: she had been an actress. Born in 1839, she was the youngest of three sisters who were the third generation of theatre folk; her family had trouped with the great from the days of Mrs.

  • Charles Dickens in the Light of 21St Century Biographies

Biographers put all their efforts to grasp the two contradictory personalities in Dickens. Earlier biographers—John Forster, Edgar Johnson, Fred Kaplan, Peter Ackroyd—they all contributed to shape the complex and elusive figure through their biographies. In the twenty-first century, before twenty years passes, a good number of writers have attempted Dickens’ biographies from different perspectives and angles. The biographers of the present century who gained critical acclaims are Michael Slater, Robert Douglas-Fairhurst and Claire Tomalin. These three new biographers also stood unique in their own ways as they each explore something fresh that has not been discovered before. The present paper aims at to paint a Dickens of twenty-first century through the three versions of Dickens architected by these three new biographers. Keyword: Dickens, biographies, Dickensian world, dark phase of Dickens’ writing, Michael Slater, Robert Douglas-Fairhurst, Claire Tomalin “Everyone finds their own version of Charles Dickens”— Claire Tomalin In 1862, Dickens had a remarkable meeting with Dostoyevsky in which Dickens told him that “All the good simple people in his novels, Little Nell, even the holy simpletons like Barnaby Rudge, are what he wanted to have been, and his villains were what he was (or rather, what he found in himself), his cruelty, his attacks of causeless enmity toward those who were helpless and looked to him for comfort, his shrinking from those whom he ought to love, being used up in what he wrote.

    Claire Tomalin: Samuel Pepys. The Unequalled Self, London: Penguin Books 2003, xiv + 499 S., ISBN 0-140-28234-3, GBP 8,99. Rezensiert von: Karl S. Bottigheimer State University of New York at Stony Brook For nine years Samuel Pepys (1633-1703) kept what has become the most famous diary in the English language. Pepys was 27 when he began his journal in 1660 and 36 when he ceased in 1669. There was an entry for every day of the nine years, except for eleven days in September- October of 1668. Diaries for other than purely spiritual purposes were rare in the seventeenth century, though Pepys's friend, John Evelyn (1620- 1706) was creating another, first published in 1818. Pepys's diary was not meant for the public, or indeed, for other eyes than his own. It was written in the shorthand developed, and published, earlier in the seventeenth century by Thomas Shelton, and was further obscured (to English eyes) by snatches of freely adapted French, Spanish, and Italian. Most of the diary concerns Pepys's consuming work as a high ranking royal servant during a formative period of the Royal Navy, but substantial space is devoted to social, political, financial, and sexual adventures, as well as to frequent medical and matrimonial crises. The complete diary, in Pepys's hand, survived in six leather-bound volumes that were part of the valuable library that he collected and, at his death, willed to Magdalene College, Cambridge, where he had been a student from 1651-54. There, with his other books, it remains.
