In this episode, Dismal Jemmy tells the Stroller’s Tale, the 97th regimental doctors continue to be disputatious, the Pickwickians meet the Wardle family and the sleepy Fat Boy, and Mr. Pickwick chases his hat. We’ll also discuss the death of Robert Seymour, the originator and first illustrator of the Pickwick serial.

The second number of The Posthumous Papers of the Pickwick Club was published at the end of April 1836. Shortly before the serial was issued, Robert Seymour took his own life.

Join the Rosenbach Museum and Library for a monthly journey through Charles Dickens’ The Pickwick Papers. The Posthumous Papers of the Pickwick Club was the first serialized novel written by Dickens and was published in 20 monthly parts (2-3 chapters per month) from March 1836-October 1837. Edward G. Pettit and a rotating set of Dickensian cohosts will talk about each serialized part once a month from March 2023-October 2024. You will relive Dickens’ funniest novel just as his first readers did.

The Rosenbach has in its collections the complete serial issues of The Pickwick Papers, a portion of the Pickwick manuscript, as well as many first editions, the earliest surviving literary manuscript, letters, ephemera, and a lock of Charles Dickens’ hair.
