Sinossi
Excerpt from Anecdote Biographies of Thackeray and Dickens
The two great men to whom this little volume is de voted will pass, we may be sure, under the sharp scrn tiny of Posterity. They divided in their life-time the suf frages Of all who speak and read the English tongue; but they cannot be said to have divided it equally, for one sprang intoopopularity, a popularity which he retained to the day of his death, while the other labored long before he was recognized; his reputation was wrung from the world. They had their adherents, as Jonson and Shakes peare had theirs, and battles were fought about them, they remaining the while, let us hope, indifferent, but amused, spectators Of the fight. The biography of one has been written; the biography of the other has not. There will be no biography of Thackeray, if his wishes and the wishes of his daughters are respected.
