Product details : THE MUDFOG PAPERS
| The Mudfog Papers, a collection of sketches by Dickens published
in Bentley's Miscellany between 1837 and 1838, describes the local politics
of the fictional town of Mudfog – such as the delusions of grandeur of its
mayor Nicholas Tulrumble and his disastrous attempts at putting on a public
show – and the meetings of its Society for the Advancement of Everything,
during which the town is overrun by illustrious scientists and professors
conducting ostensibly pointless research. Written at the same time as Oliver Twist – indeed the serialized version of the novel referred to Mudfog as the protagonist's home town – The Mudfog Papers lampoons all manner of journalistic and scientific writing of the time and showcases the young Dickens at his satirical best. |
