Roy, David J; Williams, John R; Dickens, Bernard M
Bioethics in Canada
Scarborough ON Canada: Prentice-Hall Canada Incorporated 1994. Book. Very Good. Paperback. First Printing. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. 499 pages including index. Small application of liquid paper atop title page. Book appears to have been read once but improperly stored as spine is moderately twisted. Light underlining in black ink on page 151. Only light wear and faint soiling. Green covers remain glossy.

Presents bioethics as requiring an inductive method with careful attention to historical medical scientific and social detail. Examines the major issues from scientific medical legal and ethical perspectives focusing on Canadian examples laws and debates. This multidisciplinary approach makes the text appropriate not only for the students of philosophy and religion but also for a variety of medical and legal studies.

We should of course add the name of Leslie Henson as President wherever you think best. I will try and knock out a few more. They are intended as basic ideas only and can be altered by the Board or discarded altogether.’ He is ‘down with a sharp attack of bronchitis’ and is ‘Not by any means out of the wood yet’. He believes the ‘lack of new recruits’ is because ‘they do not think the Pensino good enough. People today think in very different terms of money to those we knew. And that I fear is our great problem.’ One draft begins: ‘You Belong to the / Most Precarious Profession in the World / You Cannot Do Anything about that / BUT / You Can Provide for Yourself and / Face the Future. last word deleted and replaced in MP’s autograph with ‘Years to Come’ / That is the reason for / The Royal General Theatrical Fund / It is the Profession’s Own Way of / Safeguarding the Future / Get into touch with the Secretary at / 11 Garrick Street.

Samuel Lover (1797-1868), Irish miniature painter, author, songwriter and singer, friend of Charles Dickens [Sir Thomas Gery Cul
Samuel Lover Irish painter author entertainer. Autograph Letter in third person to Sir Thomas Gery Cullum and wife explaining why pressures of 'public engagement' mean he must stay at his hotel rather than enjoy 'the hospitality of Hardwicke'.
26 February 1845; Bell Hotel Bury St Edmunds. According to his entry in the Oxford DNB 'In 1844 Lover abandoned miniature painting as a result of failing eyesight but continued to paint and exhibit landscapes. He invented a new form of entertainment which he called Irish Evenings a monologue of songs recitations and stories all of his own composition. These he performed at the Princess's Concert Rooms London.' Between 1846 and 1848 he toured North America with great success. 3pp 12mo. Bifolium. In good condition lightly aged with minor traces of mount adhering to blank reverse of second leaf. Folded twice. The letter begins: 'Mr. Lover with much respect and sincere thanks to Sir Thomas & Lady Cullum for the honor they so kindly propose to him regrets that the shortness of his stay and urgency of his occupation interfere to prevent his enjoying the pleasure which the acceptance of Sir Thomas and Lady Cullum's invitation would cause him.' He explains that he has sung 'at Hanover Square Rooms on Monday – at Cambridge last night and after travelling to-day and his exertion of this evening with an early entertaintment sic tomorrow before him – an immediate retirement to rest after this evenings exertion is indispensible'. Consequently he must 'content himself with the Hotel of Bury – instead of enjoying the honor of the hospitality of Hardwicke sic'. He hopes that 'Sir Thomas will assure Mr. Petre how sensible Mr Lover is of the honor of his invitation but as Mr. Lover is obliged on his days of public engagement to dine very early and very sparingly he cannot have the pleasure of being made Mr. Petre's guest'. 26 February 1845; Bell Hotel, Bury St Edmunds. unknown

SENEM ÜSTÜNKAYA.
The spirit of Dickensian style.
New English Paperback. Demy 8vo. (21 x 14 cm). In English. 184 p. The Spirit of Dickensian Style is a book that contains the analysis of certain stylisticfeatures and linguistic data of Charles Dickens's five short stories in Christmas Books (1852). The stories of Dickens were stylistically analyzed under the categories defined by Leech and Short (Style in Fiction, 1981) within four headings: grammatical analysis, lexical usage, analysis of figures of speech and of narration. As a great observer, reformist and spokesman of his age, Charles Dickens artistically combined his messages with his stylistic preferences in his masterpieces. Although 'Stylistics'is the main core of this book, the aim of The Spirit of Dickensian Style was not to arrive at totally new interpretations of Dickens's works through reducing his style to a mechanical objectivity. Rather, the aim was a literature-centered stylistic analysis to show how Charles Dickens presented his social messages related to the issues of Victorian Age.

Sir Nigel Playfair [Sir Nigel Ross Playfair] (1874-1934), actor-manager of the Lyric Theatre, Hammersmith [Charles Dickens, 'Nic
Sir Nigel Playfair actor-manager of the Lyric Theatre Hammersmith. Autograph Signature 'Nigel Playfair' on the programme for the lyric production '"When Crummles Played -"' based on characters from 'Nicholas Nickleby' by Charles Dickens.
The Lyric Theatre Hammersmith W.6. London 'This Thursday evening June 2nd 1927 at 8 o'clock Subsequent evenings at 8.30'. Wightman Mountain & Andrews Ltd Printers 31 & 33 Victoria Street S.W. Four-page programme on bifolium stapled into covers of shiny art paper. In fair condition worn and aged with rusted staples. Folded once. The covers are printed on the outside only. On the front are two illustrations in Georgian style with the caption 'George Barnwell's Contrition'. On the back is a drawing of 'Portsmouth Old Theatre' 'Reproduced by kind permission of Arthur Moreland.' The small signature 'Nigel Playfair' is at top right of front cover. The first page of the programme carries five 'Producer's Notes' by 'Lessee & Manager' Playfair. The production is based on the conceit that the audience are watching the Crummles Company performing George Lillo's 'George Barnwell or The London Merchant'. In his third note Playfair writes: 'I do not intend the audience to think that the Crummles Company were bad actors in their fashion for I do not suppose they were: nor that Lillo wrote a bad play for I am sure this is not the case. If they do my production will have failed. It is in the surprises created by the surroundings and the conventions of the period that there will be I hope much to laugh at though with sympathy rather than derision.' The fourth note includes the statement 'This entertainment is not intended for Archaeologists - as such - except in the Pickwickian sense.' The last three pages of the programme give the usual details of cast and crew performance songs credits. Towards end: 'Ladies are respectfully requested to remove their hats and so add to the comfort of all.' The production ends with a 'Harlequinade' and the fifth note concerns Grimaldi. The text of Playfair's production was published by Chapman & Hall in 1927 but no other copy of this programme is to be found on OCLC WorldCat. The Lyric Theatre, Hammersmith, W.6. [London] 'This (Thursday) evening, June 2nd, 1927, at 8 o'clock | Subsequent evenings at 8. unknown

Sir Thomas Noon Talfourd (1795-1854), dramatist, judge, Radical politician, friend of Charles Dickens (dedicatee of Pickwick Pap
Sir Thomas Noon Talfourd dramatist judge and friend of Charles Lamb dedicatee of Pickwick Papers. Autograph Letter in the third person to ‘Mrs Walter’ presenting a copy of ‘a little dramatic poem’ i.e. his celebrated play ‘Ion’.
21 October 1835; Reading Berkshire. It is hard to overestimate the impact of ‘Ion’ on Victorian audiences in Britain and America. According to Talfourd’s entry in the Oxford DNB the play was ‘first performed at Covent Garden Theatre London on his birthday 26 May 1836. He had circulated the play privately to influential individuals including Wordsworth Robert Southey and Gladstone which ensured that the theatre was packed with the most distinguished audience contemporary reviewers could remember including Dickens Robert Browning Walter Savage Landor Pitt Melbourne Lord Chief Justice Denman Lord Grey and Lady Blessington. Ion caused a sensation and remained popular for many years. . The political impact of Ion was increased by the known republican sympathies of the actor in the leading role William Charles Macready. . Ion was seen as a stage play of lasting stature. It was performed continuously for over a year and consistently revived in London until at least 1861. It was even more popular in the United States where the transvestite actress Ellen Tree performed in it repeatedly. ’ 1p 12mo. Aged and spotted with a small lengthened hole causing loss to three words of text. Folded twice. Reads: ‘Mr. Sergt. Talfourd presents his compliments to Mrs. Walter and takes the liberty of sending her a copy of a little dramatic poem which is not published but printed for private circulation among those whose kindness may induce them to look indulgently on its slender claims to their attention. / Reading / 21 October 1835’.

Thomas Noon Talfourd judge and author. Autograph draft of part of his opening speech to the jury on behalf of the defendants in the Court of Exchequer libel case 'Richmond versus Marshall and Miles'.
Court of Exchequer London. December 1834. . The background to this document is ably explained in an article in the Spectator 27 December 1834 'The Spy System: Richmond versus Marshall and Miles' which begins: 'The Court of Exchequer was occupied the whole of Saturday and Monday last with the trial of an action of libel brought by Alexander Baillie Richmond the individual for many years known in Scotland by the title of "Richmond the Spy" against Messrs. Simpkin and Marshall the London publishers of Tait's Edinburgh Magazine. The plaintiff maintained that his character had been seriously damaged by some articles in the Magazine entitled "The Spy System or 'tis Thirteen Years since."'

In good condition on lightly aged and worn paper watermarked 'W KING 1834'. The page is headed '12.
