1989 The Dickens Encyclopaedia by A.L Hayward Folio Society Charles Dickens Book

The Dickens Encyclopaedia
By Arthur L. Hayward
Published by The Folio Society: London 1989
With Slipcase

" This handsome Folio Society edition presents Arthur L. Hayward's celebrated The Dickens Encyclopaedia, an indispensable reference work for readers and collectors of Charles Dickens. First published in 1924 and reproduced here in an elegant illustrated edition, the work provides an alphabetical guide to the characters, places, events, sayings and obscure allusions found throughout Dickens' novels and stories. Designed as both a companion and a reference source, it offers fascinating insights into the vast literary world created by one of England's greatest novelists.

Beautifully produced by The Folio Society in 1989, this edition forms a fitting companion volume to the publisher's celebrated series of Dickens novels illustrated by Charles Keeping. Quarter-bound in green cloth with decorative printed boards and housed in its original matching slipcase, the volume is printed on fine paper and enhanced with striking illustrations and vignettes inspired by Dickens' memorable characters and settings. The Folio Society issued the work as a companion volume to complete its green-bound Dickens series, and it remains one of the more desirable titles associated with that collection.

Containing over two hundred and fifty pages of meticulously arranged entries, The Dickens Encyclopaedia is far more than a simple dictionary of names. It serves as a richly rewarding guide to Dickensian language, customs and Victorian life, illuminating countless references that modern readers might otherwise overlook. Both practical and highly attractive, this beautifully bound Folio Society edition with its original slipcase represents an excellent addition to any Dickens collection or library of literary reference works.
