Zustand: Gut. XII, 227 S., Eine Ecke leicht bestoßen. Umschlag leicht berieben. Papierbedingt leicht gebräunt. - Caxton is one of the most famous yet least known of great Englishmen. The sources for his eventful life are unexpectedly rich and varied, but have not as yet been adequately studied and interpreted. They range from th…e abundant contemporary documents in which his name and affairs are mentioned, to the hundred surviving editions of books from his press, with their texts, types, and woodcut illustrations, and the revealing and entertaining prologues and epilogues which he wrote for them. An attractive and original but distinctively English character emerges, a man of gusto, piety and humour, of business acumen and enduring political loyalties, a gifted compulsive writer with a special delight in printing his own works, an editor-publisher of Chaucer, Gower, Lydgate and Malory who enriched English literature by translating the bestsellers of France and Burgundy, and the offstage companion, as propagandist and protégé of Yorkist and Tudor royalty and nobility, of the heroes and villains of Shakespeares Henry VI and Richard III. ISBN 070112198x Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 550 Originalleinen mit Schutzumschlag.

Hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine. 8vo (24 cm), XI, 227 pp, 7 plates. Publisher's cloth and dust jacket (minor shelf wear). "This new and definitive biography of William Caxton, the first English printer, marks the quincentenary of his death. George Painter has devoted twenty years of research to the subject and has traced the detai…ls of Caxton's life from his birthplace in Kent to his printing shop in Westminster. He tells the story of Caxton's publishing venture, the history of his books, and the literary and political events of the day. The book is illustrated with contemporary woodcuts, portraits and reproductions of Caxton's own publications. The account of the life and work of Caxton is of compelling interest to anyone concerned with the history of English literature and publishing." (from the blurb).
