Vol. 37, No. 3, September 2020 distinguished series of monographs on Victorian literature, the Cambridge Studies in Nineteenth-Century Literature and Culture. The General Editor is the polymathic and apparently tireless Professor Gillian Beer, who has, so far in the last thirty years, sifted manuscripts to find amidst the dust heap 120 worth publishing. Cambridge does a good, clean job of producing these. But since it shut down its press in 2012 after nearly five centuries of continuous printing, this codex was manufactured by a firm started in London with two hand presses in 1979 and now relocated to Cornwall, using modern mechanized equipment to produce quality books. The design and execution make for legible pages; copy-editing, referencing, and indexing are well executed. For the cover, whoever discovered Walter Goodman’s The Printseller’s Window in the Memorial Art Gallery of the University of Rochester should get a gold star. It’s a stunner, and so apropos. Quality costs. At retail just under $100, the price does not encourage individual buyers in today’s literary marketplace. But this one is worth it, for scholars, and imperative, for libraries.

抄袭维多利亚时代的小说：模仿，模仿，亚当·亚伯拉罕的后记

卷。2020 年 9 月第 37 期第 3 期维多利亚文学杰出系列专着《剑桥十九世纪文学与文化研究》。总编辑是博学多才、显然不知疲倦的吉莉安·比尔教授，到目前为止，在过去的三十年里，他在尘土堆中筛选了 120 份值得发表的手稿。剑桥在制作这些方面做得很好，很干净。但自从它在连续印刷近五个世纪后于 2012 年关闭印刷机后，这本手抄本由一家于 1979 年在伦敦成立的公司制造，该公司拥有两台手动印刷机，现在搬迁到康沃尔，使用现代机械设备生产优质书籍。设计和执行使页面清晰易读；复制编辑、引用和索引执行得很好。对于封面，在罗切斯特大学纪念美术馆发现沃尔特·古德曼的《印刷商之窗》的人应该得到一颗金星。这是一个惊人的，所以恰到好处。质量成本。零售价略低于 100 美元，在当今的文学市场上，这个价格并不鼓励个人买家。但这对学者来说是值得的，对图书馆来说是必要的。
