Book Mr  Punch s  Vol  1 of 4  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Mr Punch s Vol 1 of 4 Classic Reprint written by Charles L. Graves and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-28 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mr. Punch's, Vol. 1 of 4 The title of this work indicates at once its main source and its limitations. The files of Punch have been generally admitted to be a valuable mine of information on the manners, customs, and fashions of the Victorian age, and of the wealth of material thus provided liberal use has been made. But it must not be forgotten that Punch has always been a London paper, and that in so far as English life is reflected in his pages, London always comes first, though in this volume, and especially during the "Hungry 'Forties," Lancashire comes a very good second. For pictures of provincial society - such, for example, as that given in Cranford or in the novels of Trollope - or of life in Edinburgh or Dublin, the chronicler of Victorian England must look outside Punch. The "country cousin " is not forgotten, but for the most part comes into view when he is on a visit to London, not when he is on his native heath. Yet even with these deductions the amount of material is embarrassingly rich. And this is due not only to the multiplicity of subjects treated, but to the manner in which they were discussed. Of Punch, in his early days at any rate, the criticism recently applied to Victorian writers in general by a writer in Blackwood holds good: "They had a great deal to say, and they said it sometimes in too loud a voice. Such was their virtue, to which their vice was akin. Their vice was the vice of rhetoric. They fell to the temptation of many words. They wrote too often as the tub-thumper speaks, without much self-criticism and with a too fervent desire to be heard immediately and at all costs."

Book Mr  Punch s Life in London

Download or read book Mr Punch s Life in London written by Various and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2023-09-18 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In "Mr. Punch's Life in London," Various explores the colorful and sometimes chaotic life of the iconic character Mr. Punch as he navigates the bustling city of London. The book is a collection of humorous and satirical sketches, providing a unique glimpse into the social and cultural landscape of 19th-century London. Various employs a witty and lively narrative style, infused with sharp commentary on the absurdities of urban life. The book serves as a valuable primary source for historians and literary scholars interested in the Victorian era, offering a humorous yet insightful perspective on society at the time. Various, a collective pseudonym used by a group of writers and illustrators, was inspired by the popular Punch and Judy puppet show to create this satirical work. Their collaborative effort showcases a keen awareness of the comedic traditions of the time and a talent for crafting entertaining and thought-provoking narratives. I highly recommend "Mr. Punch's Life in London" to readers interested in exploring the intersection of humor, satire, and social commentary in 19th-century literature. Various's unique storytelling approach and vivid portrayal of London make this book a delightful and informative read for fans of comedic literature and Victorian history.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mr. Punch on Tour: The Humour of Travel at Home and Abroad There is nothing insular about mr. Punch. Judging by his features, familiar though these be and long as they have been typical of English humour, he is not without some trace of foreign origin. Indeed, we fancy that were a very searching enquiry to be made into his ancestry we might find he had a far-off forebear who was, let us say, Italian! Perhaps we have here the explanation of his breadth of mind and wide sym pathy which, however deeply rooted in the good soil of old England, are by no means absolutely delimited by our coast line.
