Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Life and Writings of Charles Dickens: A Memorial Volume When the telegraph flashed from continent to continent, and from city to city, the intelligence of the sudden death of Charles Dickens, and when that sad news was caught up and carried by word of mouth from hamlet to hamlet, the nations and peoples of the earth seemed by an instinctive impulse to pause for a brief space from the turmoil and bitter strife of their daily lives, to unite in one spontaneous and heartfelt burst sorrow at the loss of an old and constant friend. He whom they had been accustomed to greet, year after year, with anxious hospitality - not, perhaps, in actual person, but in a form as real and tangible, through the creations of his genius and the outpourings of his heart; he whose fictions and vivid pen-paintings had created household gods in every home; Charles Dickens was no more. The truth was hard to realize. For nearly forty years he had held the palm of authorship, the first place amongst a host of literary rivals, in the hearts of the millions.
