Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

First impression of the true first edition, published in the USA in 1986 by University of Missouri Press. ***Near fine in plum-coloured cloth-covered boards with silver titles to the spine. Head and tail of spine slightly creased, otherwise no bumps or creases. Corners sharp. Boards beautifully clean. Page block edges clean. No reading lean to the binding. Spine tight. Internally also near fine with no inscriptions or annotations. No foxing. Paper crisp and bright. ***In a near fine printed dustwrapper which is unpriced by the publisher, as many academic books seem to be. Head and tail of spine of dustwrapper just slightly creased. No chips or tears. No fading. Dustwrapper clean and bright. ***236mm x 160mm. 376 pages including a detailed Glossary, a list of Biblical Texts, Bibliography and Index at the back of the book. ***'John Donne was one of the most gifted preachers of his time, and his sermons are considered by many modern readers to be as intriguing and artful as his poetry. For students of literature and rhetoric, Donne's sermons reveal the fundamental assumptions that he and his age held about language, especially the language of Scripture and of devotional literature. For students of religion, those sermons present the theological basis for much religious writing of the period. In "John Donne and the |Theology of Language", Stanwod and Asals have selected passages from Donne's sermons relating to his theory of language and have provided introductions and notes that set the context for Donne's words and a glossary that defines terms unfamiliar to most modern readers. The selections are grounded by subject matter so that the elements of theology and rhetoric can be studied independently. Taken together, the selections provide a framework for understanding the theological and rhetorical underpinnings of early seventeenth-century poetry and prose, a framework that is not available in any one seventeenth-century work.' (Quote taken from the front flap of the dustwrapper) ***A near fine copy of the true first edition, complete in its original dustwrapper. Printed on quality acid-free paper. A very detailed study of the poetry of John Donne in very nice bright condition. Uncommon in the UK. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc. …
