Produktbeschreibung
A doorway into late Victorian Britain, opened anew for today's readers. A vivid snapshot of a popular periodical magazine, this Fifth Series issue gathers varied voices-illustrated serials, moral tales, science essays, and craft topics-into a single, enduring volume. Chambers's Journal Of Popular Literature, Science, And Art, Fifth Series, No. 29, Volume I, July 19, 1884, offers more than mere revisionist nostalgia. It is a carefully curated cross-section of an english literary journal designed for the general reader, the home reading circle, and the curious collector. Expect lively prose, accessible science, and artful storytelling that illuminate everyday life in late Victorian Britain, while offering windows into London publication culture of the era. This edition carries literary and historical significance that resonates with modern readers: it preserves a voice and a sensibility that shaped popular literature collections of its day, and it documents the relationships between science, art, morality, and daily recreation. The result is not just a reprint, but a restored artefact-made ready for today's libraries and tomorrow's readers. For casual readers and classic-literature collectors alike, this is a compelling purchase: a tangible link to a bygone publishing world, lovingly revived by Alpha Editions. Out of print for decades, it is restored for today's and future generations, a genuine collector's item and a cultural treasure.
