Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Mr. Pickwick´s Christmas: Being an Account of the Pickwickians´ Christmas at the Manor Farm, of the Adventures There; The Tale of the Goblin Who Stole a Sexton, and of the Famous Sports on the Ice To begin with nothing and end with something as great as Pickwick is an achievement given to few men to realise. Yet it seems that in this most haphazard way Pickwick was created. At the age of twenty-three Charles Dickens opened his door in Furnival´s Inn to the managing partner of the firm of "Chapman and Hall." The idea then propounded to Dickens was that a monthly publication should be the vehicle for certain plates to be executed by Robert Seymour, an admirable humorist-artist of great popularity. These were to deal with a Nimrod Club and their adventures, fishing, hunting, and so forth, rendered intensely humorous by exposing the lack of experience and dexterity of the members.
