Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gregory Dart expands upon existing notions of Cockneys and the 'Cockney School' in the late Romantic period by exploring some of the broader ramifications of the phenomenon in art and periodical literature. He argues that the term was not confined to discussion of the Leigh Hunt circle, but was fast becoming a way of gesturing towards everything in modern metropolitan life that seemed discrepant and disturbing. Covering the ground between Romanticism and Victorianism, Dart presents Cockneyism as a powerful critical currency in this period, which helps provide a link between the works of Leigh Hunt and Keats in the 1810s and the early works of Charles Dickens in the 1830s. Through an examination of literary history, art history, urban history and social history, this book identifies the early nineteenth-century figure of the Cockney as the true ancestor of modernity.

This book was released on 2018-01-24 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Cockney in America, or the Adventures of Triptolemus Snooks, Esq. The field for observation in that strange country, composed of H'ingins and 'ottentots, was a Wide one, and, to the naturally reflective mind of the subject of our notice, it afforded infinite Opportunities for philosophic speculation. His preceptors at Oxford had egregiously failed to enlighten the mind of Triptolemus on the early history of America. He had read, in a fable-book, many and wondrous stories of their origin; of the natives having been planted on that desolate soil by a band of expatriating Pil grims; of the country having once been under the subjection of Great Britain, and of a rebellion somewhere in the eighteenth century, from the British dominion. Also, of their shortly after having established laws of their own, planted towns and cities, built ships, manufactured steamboats, and erected telegraph wires. But all these strange stories required con firmation. For this purpose, greedily did young Triptolemus Snooks read the startling tales of Mrs. Trollope, Boz, Marryatt, and Fanny Kemble. But the perusal of these veritable authors only filled his mind with a mass of doubt and uncertainty. And, when he came to' compare these books with the Nursery Tales on the same subject, prepared expressly for the youth of the Nobility, in which the inhabitants of America are represented as half-naked Indians, and as having, sometimes as many as a dozen bands, like a Chinese Idol, and, in some instances, an extra eye situated in the centre of the forehead, he flung away his books in despair, settled his bills at the 'otel, and, with note-book and pencil, started for America, the inhospitable shores of which country he reached late in the autumn of 1846. It has become very common for the Cockney in America to have an East India Uncle. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

It read: "Pitt-Inspector MacLeish paid me a visit this evening to discuss the particulars of a murder that occurred at Coldfall Lodge, Tetherdown. Mr. Artimus Weatherill was brutally murdered and property taken, including a fair amount in sovereigns. There are some particulars regarding this event that puzzle MacLeish and since I am returning to Glasgow in the morning to testify in the Seamus Walsh affair, I took the liberty of telling the Inspector you would look into it in my absence. If your appointments will give you the morning, MacLeish will be at Coldfell Lodge at seven o'clock. Best regards, Holmes" Enter Joshua Pitt, inquiry agent, chess playing opponent of Dr. Watson, and one-time Baker Street Irregular who has set up shop little more than a block away on Baker Street. A young man in his late twenties, he is rarely without a smoking pipe at hand, a good blend of tobacco, and prefers strong Assam tea and Highland whiskey. His cases are as much adventure as mystery, and the reader is invited along for the ride, in a hansom, of course.
