Ajouter au panierHard Cover. Etat : Near Fine. Near Fine. 4th Printing. 4th printing (Ford-Smith, Folio 76 #1140). Includes publisher's slipcase. Fine book in near fine slipcase. Slipcase faintly scuffed. Binding tight and square, pages clean, bright, and unmarked. 2003 Hard Cover. 288 pp. A collection of humorous vignettes by various authors, w…ith contributions by William Shakespeare, Samuel Johnson, Charles Dickens, Winston S. Churchill, the Queen of England, G.K. Chesterton, P.G. Wodehouse, Mark Twain, Dorothy Parker, Groucho Marx, etc., etc. Ever since Chaucer's day, when the host of the Tabard Inn in Southwark rose to welcome the Canterbury Pilgrims with a joke, the After Dinner Speech, designed, if possible, to reduce the assembled company to helpless merriment, has presented the ultimate challenge. The best speakers are natural story-tellers - Gerard Hoffnung, reading a selection of letters from continental hoteliers: 'There is a French widow in every bedroom affording delightful prospects'; John Mortimer telling the woeful tale of a man's numerous unsuccessful attempts to murder his wife: 'At no time did Mrs Scott feel that the magic had gone out of their marriage' - and in this collection of post-prandial treasures you will find the very best of them, from Groucho Marx on how to resist a femme fatale, to Ralph Steadman surreally addressing the Lewis Carroll Centenary Dinner. 'Goodness', said a friend on greeting Mae West, 'where did you get those beautiful pearls?' 'Goodness', replied Mae, 'had nothing to do with it.' Shaggy dog stories, practical jokes, sporting anecdotes, rousing toasts, travellers' tales and risque reminiscences rub shoulders in this essential collection with real-life revelations and moments of history. Among the guests are Peter Ustinov, Jilly Cooper, Brian Johnstone, Charles Dickens, Dorothy Parker, Robertson Davies, Henry Grady and A.P. Herbert. There is food and drink in abundance. There is gentle reflection and endearing charm as well as defiant frivolity. Above all there are stories for every occasion - witty, absurd, momentous, philosophical, fascinating, poignant, and forever entertaining.

Ajouter au panierHardcover. Etat : Very Good. MINERVA PRESS NOVEL IN FRENCH TRANSLATION - A Paris, chez Corbet . [&] Nicolle. 1819. Three volumes. First French translation. 12mo (9.5 x 15cm) [4], 295, [1]; [4], 300; [4], 288pp., with half-titles, title-pages with small heraldic stamp (von der Leyen library, dispersed), very good in contemporary…sponge- patterned green paper-covered boards, spines with original manuscript labels, light wear to extremities. First edition, rare, of this French translation of Beauchamp, or The wheel of fortune (London, 1817), a late Minerva press novel charting the vicissitudes of Sir Charles Beauchamp of Lincolnshire. This Austen-era tale centred on the theme of reversals of fortune was penned by James Holroyd Fielding, an obscure novelist who advertised himself on the title-page of the English edition of Beauchamp as "editor" of Some account of myself, by Charles Earl of Erpingham (London, 1817). This French translation was made by Auguste Jean Baptiste Defauconpret (1767-1843). The reference to the authorship of "Fielding" on the title has confused some cataloguers, leading the book inaccurately to be described as a suppositious work of Henry Fielding (1707-1754), or as a translation of The wheel of fortune (London, 1806) by Eliza Lake. OCLC locates 4 copies only (British Library; National Library of Poland; Princeton University; Bibliothèque nationale de France). Summers p.53.
