Extractions: ASIN: Book Description This edition of one of the greatest social satires of the English language reproduces the text of the Oxford Thackeray and includes all of Thackeray's own illustrations. Download Description On a broad and colourful canvas, extending from urban and rural England to Waterloo and the continental haunts of exiles, Thackeray gives us one of the greatest social-satirical novels in the language - one of the most entertaining and profound, and, in the person of Becky Sharp, we have one of literature's most resourceful, attractive, and amoral characters. Essentially a commentary on hypocrisy and those ethical principles to which society pays lip-service, Vanity Fair (1847-8) invites us to consider which is to blame: the opportunist or the society that makes opportunism necessary. Customer Reviews: With a 19th century nerd as the hero, how can you not love it?

Extractions: GRAVE LOCATION London: Kensal Green Cemetery , Harrow Road, Kensal Green (036/1 (18177)) William Makepeace Thackeray was born in Calcutta as the son of a Collector working for the East Indian Company. He was sent to England after his father's death and he studied in Cambridge. There he lost much of his father's fortune through gambling and he left the university without taking a degree. In 1834-1835 he lived in Paris, where he met his wife, Isabella Shawe. They married in 1836. After a few happy years his wife developed mental problems, possibly because she was lonely since her husband was often away for work. In 1840 she broke down and she never recovered. Thackeray sent their children to France to his mother (in 1846 they returned to him in England).

Most of Thackeray's major novels were published as monthly serials. Thackeray studied in a satirical and moralistic light upper- and middle-class English life - he was once seen as the equal of his contemporary Dickens, or even as his superior. "This I set as a positive truth. A woman with fair opportunities, and without a positive hump, may marry whom she likes."

After his father died he was sent to home to England. He was educated at Charterhouse and at Trinity College, Cambridge. Thackeray abandoned his studies without taking a degree, having lost some of his inheritance of twenty thousand pounds through gambling.

In 1833, he brought the National Standard , but lost his fortune a year later in the Indian bank failures and other bad investments. After art studies in Paris, Thackeray returned to London in 1837 and started his career as a hard-working journalist. Often he used absurd pen names such as George Savage Fitz-Boodle, Michael Angelo Titmarsh, Théophile Wagstaff, and C.J. Yellowplush, Esq. In 1836 he married a poor Irish girl, Isabella Shawe; they had three daughters. Thackeray began to contribute regularly to Fraser's Magazine Morning Chronicle New Monthly Magazine and The Times . His writings attracted first attention in Punch , where he satirized English snobbery. These sketches reappeared in 1848 as

http://danassays.wordpress.com/encyclopedia-of-the-essay/thackeray-william-makep

Extractions: Thackeray reprinted some of this 1830s journalism as two volumes of Comic Tales and Sketches “edited and illustrated by Michael Angelo Titmarsh” (1841). He used the same pseudonym for the tourist narrator of The Paris Sketch Book (1840). What is confusing is that “Titmarsh” becomes the voice for both Thackeray’s essays and fiction. He is the author of The Second Funeral of Napoleon (1841) and The Chronicle of the Drum The English Humourists of the Eighteenth Century (1853) follows naturally from the novel Henry Esmond (1852). Standing alone, the lectures from the English Humourists series are more satisfactory as essays than the Titmarsh spoofs, which require the context of the pages of the Fraser’s club of the 18305 to achieve their effect. The parodies, too, in Punch’s Prize Novelists (1853) of Ainsworth, Disraeli, Bulwer, and others lose their point when detached from the 1840s.

Extractions: William Makepeace Thackeray (1811�1863) , author, illustrator, and editor wrote Vanity Fair: A Novel Without a Hero "It was an advance, and as such, perhaps, some ladies of indisputable correctness and gentility will condemn the action as immodest; but, you see, poor dear Rebecca had all this work to do for herself. If a person is too poor to keep a servant, though ever so elegant, he must sweep his own rooms: if a dear girl has no dear Mamma to settle matters with the young man, she must do it for herself. And oh, what a mercy it is that these women do not exercise their powers oftener! We can't resist them, if they do. Let them show ever so little inclination, and men go down on their knees at once: old or ugly, it is all the same. And this I set down as a positive truth. A woman with fair opportunities, and without an absolute hump, may marry whom she likes. Only let us be thankful that the darlings are like the beasts of the field, and don't know their own power. They would overcome us entirely if they did." Ch. 4

Extractions: THACKERAY, WILLIAM MAKEPEACE (1811-1863). �Novelist, s. of Richmond T., who held various important appointments in the service of the East India Company, and who belonged to an old and respectable Yorkshire family, was b. at Calcutta, and soon after the death of his f. , which took place in 1816, sent home to England. After being at a school at Chiswick, he was sent to the Charterhouse School, where he remained from 1822-26, and where he does not appear to have been very happy. Meanwhile in 1818 his mother had m. Major H.W.C. Smythe, who is believed to be, in part at any rate, the original of Colonel Newcome. In 1829 he went to Trinity Coll., Camb., where he remained for a year only, and where he did not distinguish himself particularly as a student, but made many life-long friends, including Spedding ( q.v. ), Tennyson, Fitzgerald ( q.v. ), and Monckton Milnes ( see Houghton), and contributed verses and caricatures to two Univ. papers, "The Snob" and "The Gownsman." The following year, 1831, was spent chiefly in traveling on the Continent, especially Germany, when, at Weimar, he visited Goethe. Returning he entered the Middle Temple, but having no liking for legal studies, he soon abandoned them, and turning his attention to journalism, became proprietor, wholly or in part, of two papers successively, both of which failed. These enterprises, together with some unfortunate investments and also, it would seem, play, stripped him of the comfortable fortune, which he had inherited; and he now found himself dependent on his own exertions for a living. He thought at first of art as a profession, and studied for a time at Paris and Rome. In 1836, while acting as Paris correspondent for the second of his journals, he
