Thackeray and Trollope Memoir Aims For Thorough Portrait
The article reviews a forthcoming Thackeray memoir by Anthony Trollope, noting Thackeray’s firm injunctions against authorized biographies. It outlines Thackeray’s life from Calcutta birth in 1811 to Cambridge, satire beginnings, early literary work, marriage in 1837, and a fragile family life that shaped his writing. It emphasizes Trollope’s tactful use of limited biographical material and his own reflections to illuminate Thackeray’s habits and character.
