Produktbeschreibung

A brisk window into Victorian minds and landscapes, revived for today's curious readers. A vivid blend of science, art, and storytelling that shows how periodical culture once fused wonder with daily life. Chambers' Journal Of Popular Literature, Science, And Art, Fifth Series, No. 18 invites general readers and anthology lovers alike to experience a bustling late nineteenth-century miscellany. Its pages offer polished popular science essays, illustrated travel tales, and concise moral sketches, all presented in a lively, accessible voice. The collection is a rich illustration of a broad British readership-sitting beside household favourites, marveling at natural history, and lingering over travel impressions that feel both intimate and global. This is more than a serial publication history preserved; it is a window into how art, science, and letters circulated together to shape everyday imagination. Historically significant as a marker of Victorian periodical culture, the volume reflects a thriving ecosystem where readers encountered illustrated reportage, literary snippets, and practical reflections on life, travel, and taste. For casual readers and classic-literature collectors alike, it offers a tactile sense of a bygone era and the enduring allure of well-made miscellanies. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions, it is restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure, a true artefact of late nineteenth century British intellectual life.
