Abstract (Summary)
In the essay on Jeremy Bentham that forms part of The Spirit of the Age,he comments on what he perceives as the "unnatural" dispassionateness of utilitarianism (a misgiving he also voiced about Godwin's moral philosophy):Those who on pure cosmopolite principles,or on the ground of abstract humanity,affect an extraordinary regard for the Turks and Tartars,have been accused of neglecting their duties to their friends and next-door neighbours.

In her Companion to Bleak House,Susan Shatto quotes Dickens on the controversy that Mrs.Jellyby had provoked:"it is one of the main vices of this time to ride objects to Death through mud and mire,and to have a great deal of talking about them and not a great deal of doing-to neglect private duties ...for ...public hullabaloo ...and thus seriously to damage the objects taken up" (54; emphasis in original).William Hazlitt had found it the "vice" of an earlier time altogether.In the essay on Jeremy Bentham that forms part of The Spirit of the Age,he comments on what he perceives as the "unnatural" dispassionateness of utilitarianism (a misgiving he also voiced about Godwin's moral philosophy):
Those who on pure cosmopolite principles,or on the ground of abstract humanity,affect an extraordinary regard for the Turks and Tartars,have been accused of neglecting their duties to their friends and next-door neighbours.Well,then,what is the state of the question here?One human being is,no doubt,as much worth in himself,independently of the circumstances of time or place,as another; but he is not so much value to us and our affections.Could our imagination take wing (with our speculative faculties) to the other side of the globe or to the ends of the universe,could our eyes behold whatever our reason teaches us to be possible,could our hands reach as far as our thoughts and wishes,we might then busy ourselves with advantage with the Hottentots,or hold intimate converse with the inhabitants of the Moon; but being as we are,our feelings evaporate in so large a space-we must draw the circle of our affections and duties somewhat closer-the heart hovers and fixes nearer home.(7-8)
Mrs Jellyby's "circle of affections and duties" is likewise global rather than domestic,and the title of the chapter that introduces her in Bleak House-"Telescopic Philanthropy"-has a rather Hazlittian color,as does the supervention of Africa on her home thoughts:
