Abstract
Dickens wrote extensively for his various periodicals; and while much of his work was collected (in, for example, The Uncommercial Traveller) much more was uncollected. The question is complicated by the fact that many contributions had a joint authorship and by Dickens’ editorial practice of rewriting the articles submitted by some of his contributors. Anne Lohrli’s useful book on Household Words (Toronto: University of Toronto Press, 1973) makes clear Dickens’ contributions to that periodical. On Dickens as editor, see various articles by Gerald G. Grubb (for example, Studies in Philology, XL, 1943; ibid., XLII, 1945); also Philip Collins in Dickensian, LII, 1956, and LXI, 1965; and in Review of English Literature, II, 1961. For various collections of Dickens’ journalism, see pp. 313–14.
