Pickwickian Studies
Transcribed from the 1899 New Century Press edition by David Price
"Pickwickian Studies" by Percy Fitzgerald is a collection of essays and reflections written in the late 19th century. The work serves as a companion piece to Charles Dickens' "The Pickwick Papers," exploring the locales and characters that inhabit that beloved classic. It offers a unique insight into the historical and cultural contexts of the settings, particularly through the lens of places like Ipswich and Bath, alongside humorous anecdotes that relate to the original text. At the start of the narrative, the author introduces the Great White Horse Inn, where Mr. Pickwick and his companions stayed, establishing a nostalgic tone that characterizes much of the text. Fitzgerald recounts both the charm and the decline of Ipswich as he reflects on Pickwick’s adventures, filled with whimsical memories of peculiar locals and humorous events. The opening sections set the scene, detailing Pickwick's initial impressions and interactions, while also hinting at underlying themes of memory, societal observation, and the passage of time—elements that resonate deeply within Dickens's original work.
