‎Dickens Charles‎

‎Autograph Letter Signed to composer "Mr. Francesco Berger."‎

‎1855. Two pages 1st and 3rd of conjoined leaves on stationery with a faint blind-stamp at the upper corner. "Tavistock House Wednesday Tenth January 1855." The text of Dickens's letter following "Dear Sir" is: I hope the opportunity you deserve will present itself naturally before very long. I cannot make an express appointment just now as I am quite uncertain whether I may be called out of town tomorrow or next day with Charles or on the business of placing him in some house of commerce. Besides which I have the Christmas holidays being over a fortnight's arrear of appointments to clear off. Your letter required no apology and is very agreeably done. Faithfully yours signed Charles Dickens. Francesco Berger 1834-1933 born in London of Italian and German parentage as a teen in 1848 traveled to Trieste his father's home city returning to England in 1855. He was trained as a pianist and composer and would go on to be a professor at the Royal Academy of Music and the 27-year Secretary of the Philharmonic Society. But look at the year he returned to England: 1855! -- the year of this letter January 10th. Although Berger would become a great friend of Charles Dickens and a frequent visitor at Tavistock House we believe that this letter might be Dickens's first to him with its formal "Dear Sir". Upon arriving in England Berger probably sent out "feelers" for musical commissions and this letter appears to be Dickens's polite declination. But this declination appears to have been temporary: look at what happened later in 1855 according to Berger's 1913 REMINISCENCES IMPRESSIONS & ANECDOTES: Everybody knows that Dickens was a fine Actor and that at one time he very nearly "took to the stage" as a vocation. He had "private theatricals" each Christmas-time in which he himself his family and intimate friends acted. In this circle he was spoken of as "the Manager" and his eldest son was known as "young Charles." In 1855 Wilkie Collins wrote a Play for one of these occasions called "The Lighthouse" and Dickens asked me to compose for it an original Overture and arrange the Incidental Music which I gladly undertook to do. For these performances Dickens had a theatre specially constructed in the rear of his house with proper footlights proper scenery proper curtain -- in fact no expense or trouble was spared to make the whole thing complete. I had a small but efficient Orchestra to conduct and presided at a Piano. The scenery was painted by Clarkson Stanfield R.A. The actors were Dickens Wilkie Collins Mark Lemon Augustus Egg Edward Hogarth Miss Hogarth and Mamie Dickens Dickens' elder daughter. There is indeed a famous photograph of about 25 members of the cast and crew either of "The Lighthouse" or of the next Dickens-Collins-Berger collaboration "The Frozen Deep" in 1857 showing all of the above-mentioned people including Berger but also including "young Charles" and his sister Kate who was married to Collins's brother -- with the elder Dickens lounging in the foreground. The letter is in fine condition blue ink slightly faded as is often the case. Provenance: from the renowned three-generation Dodge Family Autograph Collection. <br/><br/> unknown‎

‎Little Dorrit.‎

‎1889. Later Edition of the original 1857 - edition. London Chapman & Hall 1889. 23 x 15 cm. XIV 625 pages with thirty-nine engraved plates by H.K.Browne. Hardcover / Original dark green cloth cover with gilt lettering on spine. Recently professionally repaired binding with new endpapers but also the original endpapers retained and the original Exlibris mounted to pastedown. Excellent condition after restauration. Ex-Libris dated 1915 of sporting specialist Hugh McCausland on front endpaper. A lovely late-nineteenth century copy of Dickens' classic novel. Manuscript entry in ink by McCausland: "Some of the illustrations in this book are probably reproductions of those by Phiz in the 1st edition". An important society-critical Dickens Novel still highly relevant. Little Dorrit is a novel by Charles Dickens originally published in serial form between 1855 and 1857. The story features Amy Dorrit youngest child of her family born and raised in the Marshalsea prison for debtors in London. Arthur Clennam encounters her after returning home from a 20-year absence ready to begin his life anew. The novel satirises the shortcomings of both government and society including the institution of debtors' prisons where debtors were imprisoned unable to work until they repaid their debts. The prison in this case is the Marshalsea where Dickens's own father had been imprisoned. Dickens is also critical of the lack of a social safety net the treatment and safety of industrial workers as well the bureaucracy of the British Treasury in the form of his fictional "Circumlocution Office". In addition he satirises the stratification of society that results from the British class system. Wikipedia hardcover‎

With his Exlibris to the pastedown. The authentic edition: the works of Charles Dickens ; 1. The Posthumous Papers of the Pickwick Club also known as The Pickwick Papers was Charles Dickens's first novel. He was asked to contribute to the project as an up-and-coming writer following the success of Sketches by Boz published in 1836 most of Dickens' novels were issued in shilling instalments before being published as complete volumes. Dickens still writing under the pseudonym of Boz increasingly took over the unsuccessful monthly publication after the original illustrator Robert Seymour had committed suicide. With the introduction of Sam Weller in chapter 10 the book became the first real publishing phenomenon with bootleg copies theatrical performances Sam Weller joke books and other merchandise. After the publication the widow of Robert Seymour claimed that the idea for the novel was originally her husband's; however in his preface to the 1867 edition Dickens strenuously denied any specific input writing that "Mr Seymour never originated or suggested an incident a phrase or a word to be found in the book."

This volume provides a comprehensive chronological outline of the period with biographical information of each writer an assessment of their works and a discussion of literary genres or movements to which they belonged. The author shows how the great aesthetic achievements of the Romantic poem and the Victorian novel were overtaken by the complexities of a new social and industrial order which left their status secure but their reproduction in succeeding years impossible. 8vo.
