Cambridge University Press Dickens and the Popular Radical Imagination 56 Cambridge Studies in NineteenthCentury Literature and Culture Series Number 56
Book SynopsisThe relationship between the work of Charles Dickens and popular literature has often been noted, but the extent to which his fiction and journalism were rooted in, and continued to respond to, the popular radical culture of his time had so far been unexplored. Sally Ledger traces the influence of Regency radicals, such as William Hone and William Cobbett, and mid-century radical writers, such as Douglas Jerrold and the Chartists Ernest Jones and G. W. M. Reynolds. She offers substantial readings of works from Pickwick to Little Dorrit, arguing that Dickens's populism bridged eighteenth- and nineteenth-century conceptions of the 'popular', the first identified with the political idea of 'the People', the second identified with a mass-market 'populace' that emerged during Dickens's career. Richly illustrated, this study also uncovers the resonance between Dickens's writings and popular graphic art by George Cruikshank, Robert Seymour, C. J. Grant and others.Trade ReviewReview of the hardback: 'Ledger offers fresh and convincing readings of well-known Dickens texts and of lesser known others. … her densely written and informed chapters give evidence both to the protean 'gestalt' of her topic and to the fascinating insights to be gained from informed readings of the texts in the ongoing critical debate. … The lavishly yet concisely annotated study is rounded off with a 'select bibliography' that exceeds many 'full' bibliographies of other studies. Ledger's admirable study is a major contribution to Dickens criticism and a welcome impulse towards the scholarly reconstruction of nineteenth-century radical discourse.'

Cambridge University Press The Brontes and Education
Book SynopsisIn spite of the prevalence of education in the Brontës' lives and fiction, this was the first full-length book on the subject when published in 2007. Marianne Thormählen offers much new information both about the Brontës and their books and about the controversies about education in early nineteenth-century British social politics.Trade ReviewReview of the hardback: '… a valuable … addition to our understanding of the Brontë family's life and works … The strength of Thormählen's approach is her assured assembling of developments and theories that were the educational landscape against and in which the members of the family lived their lives and wove their fictional spells … Her strengths lie in the crisp, objective and lively review she undertakes in her studies, backed up by telling and generous notes that seduce one into further research … Thormählen triumphs in the light she shines on the educational world in which the family lived … This book is an exciting helpmate in the struggle to secure a firm understanding of factors that fed the Brontë sisters' imaginative development …' Brontë StudiesReview of the hardback: '… compelling and unique book … This thoroughly researched volume looks at … contemporaneous education controversies. Summing up: highly recommended.' ChoiceReview of the hardback: '… writes with considerable panache and vigor. In this reviewer's experience the book makes a very enjoyable read not only for a scholar public but for a general audience as well.' www.bronteblog.blogspot.comTable of ContentsIntroduction; Part I.
