The New Foundling Hospital For Wit, Ed. By Donald W. Nichol (Review)., Deborah D. Rogers

English Faculty Scholarship

The New Foundling Hospital for Wit ran to six parts or volumes from 1768 to 1773. By turns clever, scurrilous, and bawdy, this collection was wildly popular in its own day, but has long been overlooked if not forgotten. Now, however, Mr. Nichol’s scholarly three-volume set makes the full run of this important collection of British satire widely accessible.

and let the rest of the world go by. I like to get off on some unfrequented

part of the lake or stream in my canoe or in the woods where

the noise of the crowds can’t reach me. I …

Maine History

“I now come to the time when our Tribe was separated into two factions[,] the old and the new Party. I am sorry to speak of it as it was very detrimental to our tribe as there was but few of us the remnant of a once powerful tribe.” So spoke Penobscot tribal leader John Attean, recalling the 1834-1835 breach in tribal politics that shook the edifice of community and cohesion among the Penobscot people.
