Publisher's Synopsis
Miscellaneous Papers is a collection of essays and articles written by the renowned author Charles Dickens. The book includes a variety of topics ranging from literary criticism to social commentary, and offers a glimpse into the mind of one of the greatest writers of the Victorian era. The essays cover a wide range of subjects, including the art of writing, the role of the press in society, and the importance of education. Many of the pieces were originally published in popular magazines and newspapers of the time, and showcase Dickens' wit, humor, and keen observation of the world around him. This book is a must-read for fans of Dickens' work, as well as anyone interested in the social and cultural history of the Victorian era.I beg to say, that I use those last expressions advisedly, sir, and not in the sense in which they are now used by Jackanapeses. There were no Jackanapeses when I was a boy, Mr. Hood. England was Old England when I was young. I little thought it would ever come to be Young England when I was old. But everything is going backward.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
