- W2300656970 abstract "This chapter describes how poet Walter Savage Landor attends the christening of Charles Dickens' second son named after him at Devonshire Terrace, December 1841. The christening ceremony took place at the end of the year and the two Walter Savage Landors, one with Dickens added, met for the first time. Landor was sixty-six years older than his young namesake and his works are still considered to be classics. At that time, he was living in Bath and Dickens and his friends made several pilgrimages there to bask in his eloquence, charm, and learning. He had led a remarkably varied life. Most of it had been spent on the Continent and while there he had raised an army and accompanied it to fight the Peninsular War. When he returned to England, he bought Llanthony Abbey in Wales and wrote his Imaginary Conversations, published in 1829. The Pentameron appeared in 1837. He died in Florence in 1864. The menu for dinner at the ceremony included assorted sandwiches; buttered pikelets; queen cakes; scotch shortbread; and petit fours." @default.
