Gebraucht, sehr guter Zustand, [PU: The Clarendon Press/ Oxford University Press, Oxford], CHARLES DICKENS ; NOISBN, Jacket, This volume presents 706 letters (250 of them unpublished) for the years 1840 and 1841, which saw the publication of The Old Curiosity Shop and Barnaby Rudge within the framework of Master Humphrey's Clock. The letters mark the progress of his work, and the manuscripts of the two novels have been drawn on to clarify his many references to them. Before the volume ends Dickens had been recognized by many as a master of pathos, had been lionised in Edinburgh, and could dictate terms to his publishers. His circle of close friends had widened to include Macready, Macuse, Landor and Lord Jeffrey. The Volume ends on the eve of his departure for America. Thanks to his later holocausts oniy a few scattered letters to Dickens himself have survived-except for the year 1841. But 125 letters of that year he deposited with his solicitor on leaving England, and then forgot. This volume draws extensively on these letters in its notes. The impact he made on his friends is revealed, and simultaneously they emerge as people in their own right. Hardcover, red cloth with gilt lettering on the spine within a pale blue panel, in red and pale yellow dustwrapper. xx, 547 pages, Illustrated with a frontispiece plus facsimiles of letters and a map of Dickens' Highland tour. 6.25 X 9.5 inches.Very good book in a very good price clipped dustwrapper.The dustwrapper is in a clear paperlined removable protective jacket.<
