hardcover. Zustand: Good. First Edition. Letters from Charles Dickens to Angela Burdett-Coutts 1841-1865, Charles Dickens â" 1st Edition Publication: London, Jonathan Cape, 1953 Formatting: 8vo, pp. xii, [ii], 415, [1]. Condition Report: Good. An ex-library copy exhibiting the typical wear associated with institutional circulation. The publisher's blue cloth binding remains structurally sound and reasonably tight, though the spine is significantly sunned to a tanned hue, with this fading extending subtly along the top edges of the boards. The extremities display minor bumping and general shelf-wear, while the base of the spine bears a faded institutional shelf mark. Internally, the pages are largely bright and clean, though they carry standard ex-library markings, including blind embossed public library stamps to the preliminary leaves and a penned Dewey Decimal classification number to the title page verso. The text block edges are toned, with noticeable dust-soiling to the top edge. A perfectly readable, functional working copy. Catalogue Note: This first UK edition compiles the significant correspondence between Charles Dickens and the prominent philanthropist Angela Burdett-Coutts. The letters were selected and edited by the eminent biographer Edgar Johnson from the vast collection held at the Pierpont Morgan Library. The present volume bears the clear hallmarks of its institutional provenance, displaying the customary blind stamps and classification marks of a public library. Despite these markings and its working-copy condition, the book remains a highly valuable primary resource for Dickensian scholars, offering unfiltered access to his extensive social reform efforts. As a standard mid-century reference text, ex-library copies of this edition are highly common on the secondary market. A fascinating window into the charitable works and private thoughts of one of literature's greatest figures. Over a period of twenty-four years, Charles Dickens acted as an informal almoner and advisor to the immensely wealthy heiress Angela Burdett-Coutts. Through these selected letters, readers witness the practical application of Dickens's social conscience as the pair collaborated on numerous philanthropic projects, from establishing ragged schools to founding Urania Cottage, a pioneering home for "fallen women". With a critical and biographical introduction by Edgar Johnson, this collection provides an essential, intimate look at the author's relentless crusade against Victorian poverty and social injustice.

19 cm, Hardcover/Pappeinband. 196 Seiten , das Buch ist ein Dachbodenfund, gebräunt, fleckig, Einbandkanten mit Bestoßungen, . Franklin konnte nicht wissen, daß seine Selbstbiographie im Jahre 1946 für ein Volk veröffentlicht werden würde, von dessen Vorfahren er manche als fähige und verläßliche Siedler in seinem geliebten Pennsylvanien kannte. Hätte er es gewußt, und wäre es ihm möglich gewesen, die besonderen Umstände zu begreifen, unter denen die Deutschen, die diese Beschreibung seines Lebens lesen, jetzt leben müssen, er hätte vermutlich eine Sonderausgabe für sie verfaßt. Er hätte darin Belehrungen eingefügt, einige jener Lektionen, die er bei jeder Gelegenheit so gern erteilte. Nur zu bereit, zuzugeben, daß in seinem eigenen Leben gewisse ernste errata vorgekommen waren, gab er sich in der Folge große Mühe, wieder gut zumachen. Mit dieser moralischen Geradheit, die manche Europäer irrtümlicherweise für amerikanische Heuchelei halten, hätte er auf enata im jüngsten deutschen Verhalten hingewiesen. Doch hätte dieses mit soviel Nachsicht und Verständnis für die gegenwärtige deutsche Lage getan, daß, mochte es seine Leser auch abstoßen, sie gleichzeitig veranlaßt worden wären, ihn zu lieben und zu achten. .
