Hardback. Condition: Very Good. Reprint. Mrs LEICESTER'S SCHOOL. Charles and Mary Lamb. Illustrated by Charles E Brock. Wells Gardner, Darton & Co Ltd. London. 1913 Reprint 128pp Illustrated hardback. This copy is bound in blue linen covered boards with gilt titling and decoration to the spine and the upper board, a dust wrapper is not called for. There is some occasional spotting to the page edges but this does not affect the text or the illustrations. Mrs. Leicester's School was first published in 1809 by "William and Mary Jane Godwin". It had gone through eight editions by 1823 and, as is evident from this version, at least eleven by 1836. The authors were initially anonymous, but they were soon revealed to be the brother and sister Charles and Mary Anne Lamb (1775-1834 and 1764-1847). Following the release of Mary from an asylum, where she had been placed after the murder of her mother, the Lambs had become established as successful children's authors with their famous Tales from Shakespear (published under Charles' name). This had first appeared from the Godwins' press in 1807, by which time a number of Charles' other works for children had also been published, such as The Queen of Hearts (1805: see 0800) and The Adventures of Ulysses (1806). The Lambs' joint Poetry for Children was to follow in 1811. Mrs. Leicester's School contains ten separate inset tales bound together by the frame narrative which almost wholly recedes by the later stories. This frame is constructed in the 'Dedication' and establishes that the tales are those told by pupils in a school, later written down by their teacher. This structure is similar to that used by Boccaccio in the Decameron, but a greater debt is owed to Sarah Fielding's The Governess (1749). The authors come close to admitting this when they have their narrator, the young teacher, explain that she had read 'in old authors,' - by whom she might mean Fielding (but could just as well be referring to Boccaccio or Chaucer's Canterbury Tales) - 'that it was not infrequent in former times, when strangers were assembled together . for them to amuse themselves with telling stories, either of their own lives, or the adventures of others'. The Lambs' governess' plan is for each child who has come to the school, and is currently lonely and frightened, to tell the story of their life to the assembled class. This will break the ice and, of course, allow plenty of scope for moral and didactic observations. Ref A6. Charles E. Brock (illustrator).…
