In den Warenkorbhardcover. Zustand: Very Good. First Edition. Wordsworthiana: A Selection from Papers Read to the Wordsworth Society, Edited by William Knight â" First Edition Publication: London, Macmillan and Co., 1889 Formatting: 8vo, pp. xxiv, 352. Condition Report: Very Good. The original dark green cloth binding is tight and structurally…sound. The gilt lettering to the spine remains legible, though slightly dulled with time. The boards are clean overall, showing only minimal shelf-wear, slight bumping to the corners, and a very minor indentation to the lower edge of the rear board. Internally, the hinges are perfectly secure. The text block edges exhibit moderate age-toning and some typical foxing, primarily visible along the top edge. The interior pages remain largely bright, clean, and entirely readable, with only occasional scattered spotting restricted to the preliminary leaves. Catalogue Note: A true first edition, complete with the frontispiece portrait of William Wordsworth. The front endpaper bears a neat, contemporaneous ink ownership signature dated 6 April 1889. This title remains an uncommon find on the open market, particularly as it is entirely free from modern ex-library stamps or institutional markings that frequently plague academic volumes of this era. It is highly presentable in its original, unsophisticated cloth binding. Edited by the prominent Scottish academic William Angus Knight,ÂWordsworthiana curates an essential selection of essays and lectures delivered to the Wordsworth Society. The volume offers an invaluable window into Victorian literary criticism, documenting how late 19th-century scholars and intellectuals interpreted, debated, and championed the works of William Wordsworth. It stands as a highly engaging historical resource for enthusiasts of the Romantic poets and the evolution of literary societies. N/A (illustrator).

In den WarenkorbImpressive edition superbly bound --- One of the most impressive editions of Shakespeare in an unusual example, fresh and bound in striking full red morocco richly gilt, this binding being rather uncommon for this edition. . The Imperial edition was an ambitious project, using illustrations by a variety of artists and extensive…notes, comments and essays, including a detailed biography, by Charles Knight (1791 1873). Knight was an English publisher, editor and author. Together with his father, he founded The Windsor and Eton Express newspaper in 1812. Later, he became well known for his Penny Magazine, published in 1832-1846. Shakespeare was one of Knight's specialties: he wrote and published a biography of Shakespeare in 1842, and in the same year produced The Pictorial Shakspere, which appeared in 8 parts (18381841). Knight's editions of Shakespeare, particularly this lavish Imperial edition, are a pinnacle of the Victorian approach, in which pictures become more prominent in the audiences' interaction with the texts than representations of Shakespeare on stage. Knight's editions "played an important part in how the Victorian population thought about and constructed Shakespeare" (Goodman). Knight's aim was educational, and the illustrations in his editions of Shakespeare were intended to set the scenes and help readers visualise the historical world of the plays: for example, the 'Remains of the Amphitheatre at Ephesus' for The Comedy of Errors, and Venetian scenes, such as San Marco's Square, for The Merchant of Venice. Note of the spelling of Shakespeare's name: "Shakespeare", now the standard spelling, was also the most common published form in his lifetime but not the one he signed with. "Shakespeare" was the printed signature to the dedications of the 1593 and 1594 first editions of Venus and Adonis and The Rape of Lucrece. It is also the spelling used in the celebrated First Folio, published in 1623 after his death. The spelling of the name was later modernised as "Shakespear", gaining popular usage in the 18th century, then largely replaced by "Shakspeare" from the late 18th through the early 19th century. In the Romantic and Victorian eras however, the poet's handwritten signature seemed more authentic, and the spelling "Shakspere" became more widely adopted. Provenance: Physical description:Two volumes, folio (38x29.5cm). Vol. I: frontispiece with portrait of Shakespeare, half-title with engraved vignette, title, table of contents, list of illustrations, 26 engraved plates, 810pp.; Vol. II, engraved frontispiece, half-title with a vignette, table of contents, list of illustrations, 16 engraved plates, 778pp. plus biography of Shakespeare, title, preface, contents, 188pp.; very minor occasional spotting. Contemporary (publisher's?) red morocco richly gilt and decorated, spines with raised bands, all edges gilt. Condition: Bibliography:Goodman, M.J.

He has 'called twice on the chance of seeing Mrs. Roberts to say Goodbye', and asks the recipient to 'say it for me, in kindly fashion'. In a postscript he points out that he has himself met 'all the charges of my stay in the Hotel'. From the papers of P. S. King (1819-1908).
