Charles Edward Mudie (18 October 1818, in Chelsea – 28 October 1890), English publisher and founder of Mudie's Lending Library and Mudie's Subscription Library, was the son of a second-hand bookseller and newsagent. Mudie's efficient distribution system and vast supply of texts revolutionized the circulating library movement, while his "select" library influenced Victorian middle-class values and the structure of the three-volume novel. He was also the first publisher of James Russell Lowell's poems in England, and of Emerson's Man Thinking.

  • Charles Edward Mudie (Chelsea, 18 ottobre 1818 – 28 ottobre 1890) è stato un editore inglese. Figlio di un giornalaio e venditore di libri di seconda mano ha iniziato la sua attività nel 1840 aprendo una cartoleria e rivendita di libri a Bloomsbury. È stato il primo editore inglese di James Russell Lowell e di Emerson, ma è famoso soprattutto per aver fondato la "Mudie's Lending Library". Mudie è stato inoltre fondamentale per il successo di volumi scientifici: ha ad esempio prenotato 500 copie di "L'origine delle specie" di Charles Darwin prima ancora che venisse stampato. (it)
