Wharton and links

So we know Edith Wharton wrote her book originally as a series of entries for a magazine known as Scribner's.  Here is what Wiki will tell you about the magazine, and here is the digital copy of its articles.  (Wharton's entries featured in 1905 from January to November, so scan the 4th link down) (Oddly, the book itself was printed a month earlier, on 14th October 1905.  Go figure.)

Off to the side I've added some further links to study notes on House of Mirth, along with a great downloadable PDF on "Lily's dilemma: Opposing principles in the House of Mirth".  Look at online or download and print as you see fit.  :)
