Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. In 1844 Eliakim Littell started publishing "Littell's Living age", a weekly literary journal. Mostly it was excerpts from works - both magazine and books - published elsewhere. At times correspondents purported to share material, and sometimes there were bits and snatches of literary news. Trying to place this periodical in the scheme of things, I guess I would say it was a distant forerunner of periodicals like "The Reader's Digest", only with a higher literary pretension. TITLE : Littell's Living Age ISSUE : Vol. 2, Fifth Series; From Beginning : Vol. CXVII, No. 1504 DATE : April 5, 1873 IMPRINT : Littell and Gay PLACE : No. 17 Bromfield St., Boston PROVENANCE : Once shelved in the personal collection of Reverend E. P. Powell (Edward Payson Powell, 1833 - 1915), graduate of Hamilton College and Union Theological Seminary. He was a Congregationalist minister, an author of books and an editorial journalist of prolific production. Powell worked in the service of Abolition and civil rights. He was a resident of Clinton N.Y. and Utica N.Y. Powell was a voracious subscriber to periodicals of intellectual nature. He has not signed this item, nor is a subscription mailing label affixed to the exterior. DETAILS : Weekly Periodical; pages [1] - 64 (64 pp); approx. 6 1/4" x 9 1/2" ; pictorial wraps, sewn. Advertisement for "Littell's Living Age" on rear exterior; various advertisements on insides of cover, including one for Burlington College, NJ. (Burlington College recently became Rowen College - the old college campus sits abandoned ? a 'ghost college') CONTENTS : ** EXPLORATIONS - (from "Blackwood's Magazine") ** The Parisians (Part II) , by Lord Lytton (from "Blackwood's Magazine") ** Mendicity : From a Clerical Point of View - by Henry Whitehead -- [he was a Church of England Priest and was instrumental in revealing the source and patient zero of the 1854 London cholera epidemic. Whitehead was important in the development of epidemiology.] (from "Contemporary Review") ** A Slip in The Fens - conclusion of a serialized anonymous novel (from Macmillan's Magazine) ** Enigmas of Life - by W. R. Greg (from "Blackwood's Magazine") ** South Sea S_____ : Kidnapping and Murder - by Edwin Gordon Blackmore [Blackmore, 1837 - 1909, was a South Australian politician and former soldier in the New Zealand Army, fighting in the Maori War] (from "Macmillan's Magazine") ** Carvings, Ancient and Medieval (from "Chamber's Journal") ** POETRY : "How Doth Death Speak of Our Beloved?" ; "March" ; "Hidden in Light" by Frances Ridley Havergal [Havergal, 1836 - 1879, was an English religious poet and composer of hymns] CONDITION -- VERY GOOD -- This is a previously owned periodical that remains clean and presentable, with the following particulars noted : The bottom edge of the overlapping cover is ragged, with small tears and creasing (typical for such extended covers); there is a vertical crease running through the entire issue. On the interior are a few, various smudges and spots, none of which are especially egregious, the interior being on the whole clean and presentable. The binding is solid. A clean, presentable specimen.
