Book Description
Excerpt from The Recollections and Reflections of J. R. Planche, (Somerset Herald), Vol. 1 of 2: A Professional Autobiography Some of the anecdotes that will be found in the following pages appeared in the "London Society" Monthly Magazine from April to October, 1871: but considerable additions have been made to them, and the "Recollections" which were brought to a close with the Proclamation of Peace, in 1856, have been continued to the present year. They are limited as strictly as possible to such public and professional matters as it appeared to me would be interesting to the general reader or on which I felt myself entitled to comment - avoiding reference to my own family and private affairs except where it was necessary for explanation, and rigidly observing the same reticence with respect to those of others.

Edward Lloyd and His World
Author: Sarah Louise Lill
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 0429557612
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 291
Book Description
The publisher Edward Lloyd (1815-1890) helped shape Victorian popular culture in ways that have left a legacy that lasts right up to today. He was a major pioneer of both popular fiction and journalism but has never received extended scholarly investigation until now. Lloyd shaped the modern popular press: Lloyd's Weekly Newspaper became the first paper to sell over a million copies. Along with publishing songs and broadsides, Lloyd dominated the fiction market in the early Victorian period issuing Gothic stories such as Varney the Vampire (1845-7) and other 'penny dreadfuls', which became bestsellers. Lloyd's publications introduced the enduring figure of Sweeney Todd whilst his authors penned plagiarisms of Dickens's novels, such as Oliver Twiss (1838-9). Many readers in the early Victorian period may have been as likely to have encountered the author of Pickwick in a Lloyd-published plagiarism as in the pages of the original author. This book makes us rethink the early reception of Dickens. In this interdisciplinary collection, leading scholars explore the world of Edward Lloyd and his stable of writers, such as Thomas Peckett Prest and James Malcolm Rymer. The Lloyd brand shaped popular taste in the age of Dickens and the Chartists. Edward Lloyd and his World fills a major gap in the histories of popular fiction and journalism, whilst developing links with Victorian politics, theatre and music.
