-Oxford University Press 2001-. Reprint. x354 pages with index. Traditional blue cloth gilt. Fine no dustjacket. Although "The Decameron" and "The Canterbury Tales" have often been linked this study examines them beyond shared general similarities and looks at the search for individual analogue or source material which has proved so inconclusive. It examines the texts and their internal dynamics primarily as a whole and reveals many surprising similarities which have hitherto remained unnoticed. The two collections are examined in the light of their literary diversity their shape as a form of quodlibet debate their discussion of literature and its autonomy using the oppositions of utile diletto "sentence" and "solaas" and the specific way that individual narratives are treated so as to create a labyrinthine web for the reader to both negotiate and enjoy.

Small octavo. 45 1 pp. Hand-colored frontispiece and two full-page hand-colored illustrations and eighty-five hand-colored ornamental letters by Edith Harwood. Tail-piece. Caslon type. Publisher's vellum with rose and gilt lettering to front cover. Bit of natural mottling to vellum. Custom folding cloth chemise and slipcase. A very good copy.Great Poems Series No. 6. "In 1886 C.R. Ashbee established the Guild of Handicraft at Essex House London. Around the same time Ashbee created the Essex House Press. The Essex House Press published its first book in 1898. The work of the press was very much a part of the Arts and Crafts Movement. Ashbee continually linked the aims of the press with those of John Ruskin and William Morris and described the object of the movement as “making useful things…making them well and…making them beautiful.†The critics however were not so sure about the work of Essex House Press calling it “articraftiness.†Later booklovers came to admire much of its work. Some of the presses and some of the workmen for Essex House Press came from the Kelmscott Press after its demise in 1897 following the death of William Morris. Ashbee designed his own typeface called “Endeavor†for the press. In 1902 the press moved to Glouscestershire. The Essex House Press closed in 1910 having produced more than seventy titles."

Certainly Victor Hammer was the most accomplished and established of the group having been practicing the art at the highest levels in Florence and Vienna in the 1920s and 1930s before the War chased him to Aurora New York and eventually Lexington in 1948. But the Anvil Press was much more than just Victor Hammer. This movement began years before Hammer's arrival and continued well beyond his death. Holbrook Paul Evans ed.

[LaNana Creek Press] Chaucer, Geoffrey; Charles Jones, illustrations
The Knight's Tale: From The Canterbury Tales by Geoffrey Chaucer
Nacogdoches TX: LaNana Creek Press 2009. Hardcover. Fine. Hardcover. Limited edition but no limitation information available. No copies found in commerce in WorldCat or in Rare Book Hub. This is a striking and compelling production of the famous Knight's Tale by Geoffrey Chaucer. It is beautifully printed and bound. A note from the press states that "the narration of this tale works by condensing actions and their effects into powerful symbols and figurative images. It is therefore a work that lends itself to illustration. The Knight's Tale has in fact been illustrated many times but never so thoroughly as in the current edition. Moreover past illustrators have tended to romanticize or sentimentalize the story eschewing its most violent and disturbing images."<br /> <br /> The book was printed at the Press when it was part of the College of Fine Arts at Stephen F. Austin University. The Press was part of the Stephen F. Austin St. University College of Fine Arts until December of 2019. Since then the press has become part of the Crazy Creek Studios and ceased any connection to SFA. Printed from photopolymer plates. Designed and printed by Jones and Terri Goggans. Printed in Goudy Thirty and Gill Sans type on Hahnemühle Gutenberg paper. Text is printed in black with red shoulder notes. The book is accompanied by a recording of the text by Marc Guidry on a disc in a pocket on the front pastedown. Bound in dark red cloth with a burgundy leather spine with gilt titling to spine. There is a small black and red image of one of the book's illustrations on the cover. Housed in a gray cloth slipcase with a circular hole in the front cover to reveal the cover illustration. In fine condition. Measures 9.75 x 13.75 inches. Unpaginated about 100 pages PRI/111424. LaNana Creek Press hardcover

Aers, David
CHAUCER, LANGLAND AND THE CREATIVE IMAGINATION
Dustjacket is protected in mylar. Dustjacket has some shelfwear and rubbing. DJ is price-clipped. Book has some crumpling to boards. ; Aers aims at a literary, critical response which moves from close reading of particular texts (notably Piers Plowman and Chaucer's Troilus and Criseyde and the Canterbury Tales) to the relevant contexts, social, theological, ecclesiastical. The reader is thus able to return to the texts with an enriched and sharpened understanding of his world, and an increased appreciation of the literature at the heart of this book. ; 248 pages
