Book Description
Excerpt from Smoking: When Injurious, When Innocuous, When Beneficial, With a Compendium of the Temperaments, Shewing How They Are Influenced by the Use of Tobacco Man exists by bread; he lives with tobacco. Bread is the staff; tobacco the charm of life - bread represents necessity; tobacco, enjoyment The one, toil; the other, relaxation: the former, the straight line; the latter, die curve of beauty - the wave of grace - the ellipse - the circle. In the fifteenth century, Europe became acquainted with the art of printing, and with tobacco. During the years which have since enlightened the darkness of prior ages, literature and tobacco have preserved so close an affinity, that they may not now be sundered. Raleigh, Milton, Dryden, Newton, Prior, Steel, Addison, Swift, Congreve, Bolingbroke, Pope, Johnson, Byron, Bums, Scott, Campbell, Moore, Thackeray, and Dickens, spoke, wrote, or sung, under inspiration from the "weed of strange power," Tobacco plays, however, a higher role than that of prompting merely. It seems to have been specially entrusted to the use of man, for the purpose of long preserving our most giant minds, by virtue of its power to lull them into an occasional and calm repose.

Lewis Carroll Among His Books

Book Description
Charles Lutwidge Dodgson--known better by his pseudonym, Lewis Carroll--was a 19th century English logician, mathematician, photographer, and novelist. He is especially remembered for his children's tale Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and its sequel, Through the Looking Glass. By the time of Dodgson's death in 1898, Alice (the integration of the two volumes) had become the most popular children's book in England. By the time of his centenary in 1932, it was perhaps the most famous in the world. This book presents a complete catalogue of Dodgson's personal library, with attention to every book the author is known to have owned or read. Alphabetized entries fully describe each book, its edition, its contents, its importance, and any particular relevance it might have had to Dodgson. The library not only provides a plethora of fodder for further study on Dodgson, but also reflects the Victorian world of the second half of the 19th century, a time of unprecedented investigation, experimentation, invention, and imagination. Dodgson's volumes represent a vast array of academic interests from Victorian England and beyond, including homeopathic medicine, spiritualism, astrology, evolution, women's rights, children's literature, linguistics, theology, eugenics, and many others. The catalogue is designed for scholars seeking insight into the mind of Charles Dodgson through his books.
