English novelist.
British author.
Walter Besant (1836-1901) was an English author and social critic. He was born in Portsea August 14, 1836, the fifth child of a family with six sons and four daughters. His parents were William Besant, a merchant, and Sarah Ediss Besant, the daughter of an architect. Besant spent three terms at King's College, London, and graduated from Christ's College, Cambridge, in 1859. After his graduation, Besant worked briefly but unsuccessfully as a journalist, then accepted a mathematics teaching position at Leamington College, followed by a senior professorship at Royal College on the island of Mauritius from 1861 to 1867. Besant returned to London to pursue his literary career, and published his first book, Studies in Early French Poetry, in 1868, followed by several articles on French literature and social topics. Encouraged by his success, Besant continued to write while he supported himself as secretary of the Palestine Exploration Fund, a position which he held until the huge success of All sorts and conditions of men established his literary career in 1882. A prolific writer, Besant published sometimes three or four novels a year, and his most successful collaborations were with James Rice, the editor of "Once a Week." From 1872 until Rice's death in 1882 the two published more than a dozen novels and collected editions of long stories that brought them commercial and critical acclaim. After Rice's death, Besant continued writing the East End working-class romances upon which his reputation was made. During the final period of his career, from 1887 until his death in 1901, the quality of Besant's novels suffered, but he continued to pursue his interests in various social reforms in both his fiction and nonfiction writing. One work in particular, Fifty Years Ago (A Picture of Society in this Country as it was when the Queen Ascended the Throne), was published in 1888 as an historical retrospective of the year Queen Victoria began her reign. Another work, The Queen's Reign and its Commemoration, was published in 1897, and echoes Besant's familiar themes of social reform and the vast improvements that had taken place since Queen Victoria ascended the throne in 1837. In 1895, Besant was knighted, largely due to his East End writings and his efforts on behalf of social reform.
English author.
Sir Walter Besant was a popular and prolific English author and social activist. After a distinguished career at Cambridge, he tried several different careers before finding success as an author of essays and fiction. A long and successful collaboration with James Rice resulted in a dozen novels, and Besant also wrote successful novels and non-fiction on his own. He is perhaps best remembered for the East End novels, which raised awareness of living conditions among the poor. He also wrote biographies and history, and was working on an ambitious survey of London when he died.

Fales Manuscript Collection, ca. 1700-2000
Title:
Fales Manuscript Collection ca. 1700-2000
The Fales Manuscript collection is made up of some 50,000 items, much of which was assembled by DeCoursey Fales from 1908-1966 and donated to NYU. The provenance of the materials is complicated, however. Following Fales' death in 1966, other collections and purchases were added into the Fales Manuscripts collection. We do not have a comprehensive listing of what Fales owned and what the library later purchased after his death. The collection consists of correspondence, manuscripts, drawings, photographs, realia, ephemera, and other materials primarily about English and American authors from 1700 to the present. There are special strenths in the Victorian, Edwardian, English 1890s, and Transition Period writers.

Correspondence of Besant and of his literary agent A.P. Watt concerns publication arrangements for Besant's work.

Correspondence between publishers and Watt pertain to the purchase of publication rights to Besant's works by a variety of newspapers and magazines. Specific topics include the higher price paid for a work by Wilkie Collins, competition with H. Rider Haggard, disagreement with the John Jacob Astor estate over American copyright, negotiations for a second edition of his history of Jerusalem, and negotiations over the posthumous publication of his autobiography. Three letters of his nephew P.M. Besant concern publication requests after his uncle's death.
