Hardcover. Zustand: Fair. An exceedingly rare piece of byroniana, no doubt due its ephemeral production, with chipping to the edges, and text block separating in parts. The work is a most interesting account of an important episode in Byron's life. On December 2, 1816, he arrived at the Monastery of Mekhitarists in Venice to study the Armenian language Lord Byron at the Armenian Convent During the involvement in his first Venetian love. Byron felt the need for something else: a new intellectual "amusement" to supplement the pleasures of the body with those of the mind. During his stay in Venice in 1816, he soon found a new pursuit that, at least during the day, would keep his mind occupied: the study of the Armenian language. The studies lasted some months, and his friendship with the Mekhitarists ended up in some collaboration when it came to publishing a grammar of English and Armenian, as well as translating some works. But Lord Byron did not manage to get too far in his mastery of the Armenian language, the complexity of which he admits for himself. He was, by all accounts, far more successful in his romantic pursuits. Lord Byron's interaction with the Armenian world in Venice is much celebrated even today. He may have been the very first Westerner in the modern era to take such an active interest in things Armenian, thereby setting the stage for other scholars and perhaps other romantics as well to try their hand at "the thirty-eight cursed scratches of Mesrob, the maker of alphabets", challenging as though that might be at times. No auction records exists, not to be found in the commerce.…
