Laura Simpson
Manuscript Commonplace Book, By a Young English Woman, Created at the York House, Malton, Where Charles Dickens Frequented.
Manuscript commonplace book created at the York House - where Charles Dickens reputedly wrote some of his novels - by a woman called Laura Simpson, daughter of Malton solicitor Alfred Simpson, Esq., who was also appointed Bailiff of the Borough of Malton in 1856 by 6th Earl Fitzwilliam, owner of the York House, the most important historic house in Malton. Miss Laura signs and dates the front endpaper on 30 August 1872, and again to its verso on 2 February 1873, though dated entries range from 1870 to 1875. 8vo. 68 pages featuring manuscript entries and newspaper clippings of various subject matters. Quarter calf over brown and yellow marbled boards. Volume measures approximately 16,5 x 19,5 cm. Very good condition. The volume was created by a young woman who evidently lived at York House in Malton which has an interesting connection to Charles Dickens from only twenty-five years earlier. Her father having close ties with the owner of the Fitzwilliam Malton Estate, it is quite conceivable that he met or knew the great author personally. Laura Simpson is the daughter of Alfred Simpson, Esq., a solicitor, Chairman of the Malton Burial Board, and Bailiff of the Borough of Malton, whose residence was at Yorkersgate, presumably being a tenant of the York House owing to the Simpson-Fitzwilliam family connection through an earlier marriage. York House is an impressive 17th century home in Malton where Charles Dickens reputedly wrote many of his novels, where he certainly found inspiration for some of his characters. The reason for Charles Dickens' association with Malton, and York House in particular, was his long friendship with Charles Simpson, solicitor. The Smithson family had their offices on Chancery Lane in Malton and they also shared a practice in London. The death of Charles Simpson's father in 1829, had necessitated his brother Henry to return to Malton and take over the family business, whereas Charles remained in London. It is whilst residing in London that Smithson & Dickens met. Thomas Mitton, a friend of Dickens had persuaded him to act as surety on a loan to purchase a one-third stake of Smithson & Dunn. In 1840, Henry followed his father and brother John to his grave. Charles was compelled to leave London and take over both the Chancery Lane practice and the duties of the town Bailiff previously carried out by his father and brother. Dickens visited Malton often in the 1840s. He delighted audiences with his readings wherever he went. He read in Malton, in what was said to be a theatre, on one of his visits. Manuscript

Laurence Sterne
Voyage sentimental en France et en Italie
vol. in folio, 300x200, relié demi chagrin cuir, frottements et accrocs, couvertures conservées, très bel état intérieur, 212pp H. Launette éditeur 1884 librairie artistique Le Voyage sentimental à travers la France et l'Italie est un roman de l'écrivain irlandais Laurence Sterne, écrit et publié pour la première fois en 1768, alors que Sterne va bientôt mourir. En 1765, Sterne voyage à travers la France et l'Italie, poussant jusqu'à Naples et, à son retour, décide de décrire son voyage dans une optique « sentimentale ». Le roman jouit d'un très grand succès et d'une très grande influence et contribua à faire du récit de voyage un des genres dominants de la seconde moitié du XVIIIe siècle. À la différence des récits précédents, qui cherchent à dispenser des connaissances objectives, Le Voyage sentimental insiste sur une approche subjective des goûts et sentiments personnels, des mœurs et des coutumes, au-delà du savoir classique. Au cours des années 1770, des femmes écrivains commencèrent à publier un nombre significatif de récits de « voyages sentimentaux ». Le style « sentimental » devint le mode d'expression favori de la littérature non officielle et du radicalisme politique.

CULTURAL IDENTITY IN THE ROMAN EMPIRE
Routledge. Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. 1998. Hardcover. 041513594X . DJ has very minor shelfwear else Fine ; This provocative and often controversial volume examines the notions of ethnicity citizenship and nationhood to determine what constituted cultural identity in the Roman Empire. The contributors draw together the most recent research and use diverse theoretical and methodological perspectives from archaeology classical studies and ancient history to challenge our basic assumptions of Romanization and how parts of Europe became incorporated into a Roman culture. Cultural Identity in the Roman Empire breaks new ground arguing that the idea of a unified and easily defined Roman culture is over-simplistic and offers alternative theories and models. ; 205 pages .
