Up front at the
Literature venue and memories of Charles Dickens
great literary works ...
AP blogged today on the same subject as apparently Dickens
collection now in New York is to be sold at Christies for millions of dollars on 2 April ...
The Collection is composed as follows:
Pickwick Papers: Oliver Twist: The Uncommercial Traveller
and as Dickens was Editor of The Daily News .. some of that is also for sale.
The Collection was held in America together with American and English Literature and Film.
I taught Dickens as a Literature Lecturer here in England ... part time .. and also in Turkey ... we had a bit of excitement about it as Dickens and the history of Dickens collection is very stimulating for
students .. in these instances my students were Austrian and its good that Europe and Turkey should be reminded by AP that we are the communicators of this great literary tradition both in spoken and written form and there has never been an author historically or traditionally to outrun Charles Dickens. As a child I watched the BBC in black and white and caught every episode of Charles Dickens great books on the telly but at school it was a different matter .. I studied A Christmas Carol! Great blog from AP ... thanks ..Charles Dickens and English Speaking World for rescuing me .. literature rescued ME.
