Book Description
Excerpt from Four Original Plays: Unacted These plays are published, partly because the author is tired of hearing that original English plays are never written nowadays, and partly because the popular taste for farcical comedy and burlesque tends to crowd out work of serious purpose, be it the intensity of drama or the satire of comedy. We children of this last quarter of the nineteenth century have discovered that life is a farce, and not a drama; or if in any sense a drama, a drama of brutal realism - the tragedy of the slums, and the tragedy of the police court. Well, these plays, be they good or bad, are original English plays, and they have been written with a certain amount of serious purpose. Their main purpose is, of course, to interest and amuse - to interest, through an analysis of human nature and human motive, and through the conflict and clash of human passions to amuse, through a satirical rendering of human vanity and human folly.

Book Description
Charles Lutwidge Dodgson--known better by his pseudonym, Lewis Carroll--was a 19th century English logician, mathematician, photographer, and novelist. He is especially remembered for his children's tale Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and its sequel, Through the Looking Glass. By the time of Dodgson's death in 1898, Alice (the integration of the two volumes) had become the most popular children's book in England. By the time of his centenary in 1932, it was perhaps the most famous in the world. This book presents a complete catalogue of Dodgson's personal library, with attention to every book the author is known to have owned or read. Alphabetized entries fully describe each book, its edition, its contents, its importance, and any particular relevance it might have had to Dodgson. The library not only provides a plethora of fodder for further study on Dodgson, but also reflects the Victorian world of the second half of the 19th century, a time of unprecedented investigation, experimentation, invention, and imagination. Dodgson's volumes represent a vast array of academic interests from Victorian England and beyond, including homeopathic medicine, spiritualism, astrology, evolution, women's rights, children's literature, linguistics, theology, eugenics, and many others. The catalogue is designed for scholars seeking insight into the mind of Charles Dodgson through his books.
