A propos de cet article

FROM THE LIBRARY OF CHARLES DICKENS.Presentation copy from John Forster to Charles Dickens.Original bookplate of Charles Dickens.PRESENTATION COPY FROM JOHN FORSTER TO CHARLES DICKENS.John Forster was one of his closest friends, eventually writing the biography of Charles Dickens.First Edition of a book by John Forster, inscribed to Charles Dickens."The author to his most dear friend Charles Dickens"7 February 1860.John Forster (1812â"1876) was a prominent English biographer, critic, and editor, best known for his close friendship with Charles Dickens and for writing The Life of Charles Dickens (1872).Dickens frequently inscribed presentation copies of his novels to Forster with affectionate messages, often referring to him as his "dear" or "most dear" friend. Here is Forster gifting to Dickens in similar format.Additional bookplates of Edmund Yates, also a close peer of Dickens.Yates may have acquired these books at the Gadshill sale, motivated by the association from Forster.Some books from the Gadshill sale don't have Dickens actual bookplates.This set has Dickens actual bookplate.Significant provenance and owners:1. Charles Dickens bookplate.2. Inscribed association gift from John Forster, (on a First Edition work by John Forster,) gifted to Charles Dickens.3. Gadshill dispersal bookplates.4. Edmund Yates bookplates, close peer of Dickens.Forster personally inscribes and presents his own first edition to "his most dear friend Charles Dickens," 7 February 1860 â Dickens's personal bookplate â June 1870 Gadshill library label â Sotheran's c.1871 valuation identifying K4 as a "Presentation copy" â Charles Dickens Jr.'s K4 catalogue record â later Edmund Yates ownership, evidenced by his bookplates.An exceptional association copy from the library of Charles Dickens.This is an exceptional Dickens association copy, because the author was one of Dickens's closest friends and eventual biographer, and the book physically records the direct presentation between themJohn Forster (1812â"1876) was a highly influential English biographer, critic, editor, and historian, best known for his intimate friendship with Charles Dickens and for authoring the seminal 3-volume biography, The Life of Charles Dickens (1872â"1874). He was a central figure in mid-19th-century London literary circles, acting as an advisor, agent, and confidant to many prominent writers.Edmund Yates (1831â"1894) was a prominent Victorian journalist, novelist, and dramatist who was a close protà gà of Charles Dickens. He contributed to Dickens's journals, Household Words and All the Year Round.This is an association copy moving directly between two of the central figures in Dickens's life, with the presentation relationship physically documented in the book and the historical record.Dickens Library Online records this:This is copy K4 / V13.09 / C031.05, appearing in Sotheran's valuation and Charles Dickens Jr.'s catalogue. Sotheran specifically calls this one "Presentation copy."The posthumous Gadshill library label dated June 1870.From the Library of Charles Dickens, Gadshill Place, June, 1870; major trade descriptions connect these labels with the later Sotheran dispersal of Dickens's library, particularly the 1878 sale organized with Dickens's son.That Yates presumably acquired it at the Gadshill sale is presently inference rather than provenance. The provenance can only assert his ownership post 1878.Full Provenance:Inscribed presentation copy gifted to Charles Dickens from John Forster.Original bookplate of Charles Dickens.Original posthumous Gadshill library labels dated June 1870.This book appears in the Sotheran, Charles Dickens Junior records. Catalogued as 'Presentation Copy'. See picture 23.This is copy K4 / V13.09 / C031.05, appearing in Sotheran's valuation and Charles Dickens Jr.'s catalogue.
