The Mudfog Papers relates the proceedings of the fictional ’The Mudfog Society for the Advancement of Everything’, a Pickwickian parody of the British Association for the Advancement of Science. Like The Pickwick Papers, The Mudfog Papers claim affinity with Parliamentary reports, memoirs, and posthumous papers. At the conclusion of his first chapter, about the mayor of the provincial town of Mudfog, Dickens explains that 'this is the first time we have published any of our gleanings from this particular source,' referring to ’The Mudfog Papers’. He also suggests that 'at some future period, we may venture to open the chronicles of Mudfog.' 3
