DICKENS, Charles
Memoirs of Joseph Grimaldi edited by "Boz". With illustrations by George Cruikshank.
<p><strong>Very rare first edition of the <em>Memoirs of Joseph Grimaldi</em> by Charles Dickens 1812-1870.</strong></p><p>2 volumes in-12 of: I/ portrait xix pp. 1 leaf 288 pp. 6 plates; II/ frontispiece ix 263 pp. 5 plates. Long-grain orange morocco triple gilt fillet framing the boards raised bands on spine with decorations green and olive morocco title and volume labels gilt inner roll slipcase. <em>Bayntun Bath</em>.</p><p>187 x 110 mm.</p><p>First edition of the <em>Memoirs of Joseph Grimaldi</em> 1779-1837 published by Charles Dickens.</p><p>First printing without the border added to the plate <em>The last song</em> in the second volume.</p><p>Charles Dickens 1812-1870 who began his career as a simple stenographer later became one of the most popular English novelists with <em>Oliver Twist</em> <em>Pickwick</em> or <em>David Copperfield</em>. In his novels inspired by his painful childhood he recounts the fate of young heroes who seek a better life and try to forget their miserable origins. "Master of an ambiguous world whose reality constantly opens onto dream" he created characters guided by hope grappling with a world which contaminated by the capitalist system suffers from a social ill.</p><p>A little-known Dickens.</p><p>In this biographical novel which recounts the strange adventures of the greatest English clown of the nineteenth century the young Boz already reveals his astonishing storytelling talent.</p><p>Here is a work by Dickens almost unknown in France which was partially translated in 1951 in a confidential edition now out of print and unfindable <em>Éditions du Globe</em>.<br />The story of this manuscript is quite surprising and it was by a curious twist that Dickens became its official author: the clown Grimaldi spent the year before his death writing the complete story of his life then entrusted the voluminous manuscript to a friend who set about condensing it before presenting it to a first publisher. This publisher taking advantage of the freedom afforded by the author's death immediately brought it to Charles Dickens. In 1838 Charles Dickens was only twenty-five years old but under the pseudonym "Boz" was already a beloved author of the public. The <em>Sketches</em> published in the newspapers and magazines whose success they had helped build and the <em>Pickwick Papers</em> so quickly popular had established his reputation within three or four years. The owner of the <em>Memoirs of Grimaldi</em> therefore had every reason to think he would benefit greatly if Dickens entirely reworked them deploying his slightly mocking simplicity his shrewd good-nature his profound knowledge of vulgar manners popular slang and disreputable eccentricities. Dickens for his part felt that this was a fortunate subject for his pen and that it would not lower itself by associating with the memories of a clowntrue but a clown such as had scarcely been seen before.</p><p>The life of the great Joe his adventurous career indeed offers us some of the most curious aspects of British manners of the life of its theatres and its underworld. Chance by sowing many strange incidents dramatic encounters and bizarre twists in the existence of this performer seems to have delighted in giving him an extraordinary fate and thus doubly marking him out for biographical attention. And in many ways Dickens no doubt saw in this child prodigy and pure-hearted artist a kind of double of himself.</p><p>The edition is illustrated with a portrait of the author engraved on copper by <em>William Greatbach </em>1792-1878 after a drawing by <em>Samuel Raven</em> 1775-1847 as well as 12 plates outside the text also copper-engraved by <em>George Cruikshank</em> 1792-1878.</p><p>Fine copy printed on vellum paper in a binding by Bayntun bookbinder of Bath.</p><p>FRANCAIS</p><p><strong>Edition originale fort rare des <em>Memoirs of Joseph Grimaldi</em> de Charles Dickens 1812-1870.</strong></p><p>2 volumes in-12 de : I/ portrait xix pp. 1 f. 288 pp. 6 planches ; II/ frontispice ix 263 pp. 5 planches. Maroquin orange à grain long triple filet doré en encadrement sur les plats dos à nerfs ornés pièces de titre et de tomaison de maroquin vert et olive roulette dorée intérieure tranches dorées étui <em>Bayntun Bath</em>.</p><p>187 x 110 mm.</p><p>Édition originale des Mémoires de Joseph Grimaldi 1779-1837 publiée par Charles Dickens.</p><p>Premier tirage sans la bordure ajoutée à la planche <em>The last song</em> du second volume.</p><p>Charles Dickens 1812-1870 qui a débuté sa carrière comme simple sténographe est devenu par la suite l'un des romanciers anglais les plus populaires avec <em>Oliver Twist Pickwick </em>ou <em>David Copperfield. </em>Dans ses romans inspirés de son enfance douloureuse il raconte le destin de jeunes héros qui sont en quête d'une existence meilleure et cherchent à oublier leur origine miséreuse. " <em>Maître d'un monde ambigu dont la réalité donne sans cesse sur le rêve</em> " il a créé des personnages guidés par l'espoir aux prises avec un monde qui contaminé par le système capitaliste souffre d'un mal social.</p><p>Un Dickens méconnu.</p><p>Dans ce roman biographique qui relate les étranges aventures du plus grand clown anglais du XIXe siècle le jeune Boz laisse déjà percevoir son étonnant talent de conteur.</p><p>Voici un ouvrage de Dickens à peu près ignoré en France qui fut partiellement traduit en 1951 dans une édition confidentielle aujourd'hui épuisée et introuvable Éditions du Globe.</p><p>L'histoire de ce manuscrit est assez surprenante et c'est par un curieux détour que Dickens en devint l'auteur officiel : le clown Grimaldi employa l'année qui précéda sa mort à rédiger l'histoire complète de sa vie puis confia le volumineux manuscrit à un ami qui s'appliqua à le condenser avant de le présenter à un premier éditeur. Celui-ci profitant de la liberté que lui rendait la mort de l'auteur les porta immédiatement à Charles Dickens. Charles Dickens en 1838 n'avait que vingt-cinq ans mais sous le pseudonyme de " Boz " était déjà un auteur chéri du public. <em>Les Sketches</em> publiés dans les journaux et magazines dont ils avaient fait le succès les <em>Pickwick Papers</em> si promptement populaires avaient assis en trois ou quatre ans sa réputation. Le propriétaire des <em>Mémoires de Grimaldi</em> eut donc toutes les raisons de penser qu'il en tirerait un excellent parti si Dickens les remaniait entièrement en y déployant sa simplicité un peu narquoise sa bonhomie rusée sa profonde connaissance des murs vulgaires de l'argot populaire et des excentricités mal famées. Dickens de son côté sentit que c'était là pour sa plume un heureux sujet et qu'elle ne dérogerait pas en s'associant aux souvenirs d'un clown il est vrai mais d'un clown comme on n'en avait guère vu jusqu'alors.</p><p>La vie du grand Joe son aventureuse carrière nous livre en effet quelques-uns des plus curieux aspects des murs britanniques de la vie de ses théâtres et de ses bas-fonds. Le hasard en semant bien des incidents étranges des rencontres dramatiques des péripéties bizarres dans l'existence de ce comédien semble s'être complu à lui faire un sort extraordinaire et à le désigner ainsi doublement à l'attention des biographes. Et par bien des aspects Dickens vit sans doute en cet enfant prodige et en cet artiste au cur pur une sorte de double de lui-même.</p><p>L'édition est illustrée d'un portrait de l'auteur gravé sur cuivre par <em>William Greatbach</em> 1792-1878 d'après un dessin de <em>Samuel Raven</em> 1775-1847 ainsi que de 12 compositions hors texte également gravées sur cuivre de <em>George Cruikshank</em> 1792-1878.</p><p>Bel exemplaire imprimé sur papier vélin en reliure de Bayntun relieur anglais de Bath.</p> Richard Bentley.
