Goodnight,
As indicated in my first post, we are working on Cardboard romantic in both directions. One who is to make a descriptive typology of gold chains as well those of the front, that those on the back and back and thus achieve an iconography Descriptive better defined than at present. This is the subject of records being published regularly on this blog. The other study is a simple creation of photo record of all copies that we have already met and their grouping as a way to collect the various cartons on a single track in one glance. This is the basic material of the website we hope to finalize in 2011 and when operational will allow a quick search by title, author, publisher, date, writer, type of iron ... etc. ...
we have already gathered nearly a thousand cards. Together with those for generic Irons, we will, over time and as the description you have some, title by title. This work is still in draft form but imperfect step. Please note that the numbering of structures is tentative and we do not know as yet whether it will become final upon the placing on the Web.
Moreover, these cards are state Book collecting comments and we will give you all next message in a bibliographic listing of books or catalogs that we consulted . The index scarcity, of course subjective, is based on our knowledge of this limited market.
Today four cards on the Vicar of Wakefield
( Eight years before his death, Oliver Goldsmith publishes what will remain his only novel, The Vicar of Wakefield . Success is not to go, it will be long in coming but sustainable. There are already six translations when, in 1838, Charles began his Nodier.
This novel is a synthesis of topics and themes familiar to the great English novelists of the eighteenth century. Fielding, but he retains the picaresque accentuates the comic, of Richardson, he took a spring classic narrative, pure young girl pursued by a ruthless seducer.
The plot is worthy of the ironic "Everything is going very well, Madame la Marquise." Reverend Primrose faces the misfortunes of the world, one by one, will befall him and his family. Without
knowledge can be, Oliver Goldsmith gives us one of the first novels of introspection. His sentimentality, delivered from Puritanism, humane, humanitarian, ethical, even, and will lead to romanticism, his realism is psychological as well as social, charitable irony goes with good nature clairvoyant, making it all the more endearing the character of vicar in which Goldsmith has certainly been a part of himself.)
