Small octavo 6 1/4 x 4 in; 157 x 103 mm. Collection One: 47 1 blank; 68; 52 pp. Collection Two: 72; 60 pp. Two leaves comprised of table of contents and dedication page to Collection Two have been misbound out of sequence. Otherwise complete with half titles for each volume both shared title pages both shared contents leaves all dedication leaves all half titles for each fairy tale and all five regular title pages. <br/><br/>Contemporary quarter calf over marbled boards. Marbled edges. Some light scattered foxing and toning and an occasional inkspot. Otherwise a very nice copy. Housed in a quarter morocco clamshell case.<br/><br/>A work of extreme scarcity with OCLC/KVK recording only a handful of copies in libraries worldwide and with possibly only one other example the Klein copy 1980 coming to auction within the last thirty-three years of ABPC records Sotheby Hodgson's catalogue note vague and incomplete. <br/><br/>These stories were originally issued in parts; very few have survived in that state. The publisher Reitzel collected the individual parts in their original printings added tables of contents and published them in anthologies as here.<br/><br/>The importance of these stories here - staggeringly - in their first edition cannot be underestimated. They have become deeply embedded in the Western world's cultural consciousness as timeless as our memories of childhood. More to the point however is that unlike Charles Perrault and the Brothers Grimm who were compilers and talented interpreters of traditional folk stories in their respective cultures in this second series of Andersen tales the stories are wholly original the product of a brilliant imagination featuring characters of great love and yearning who misunderstood and misfits in a cruel world have become transcendent heroes for humanity of all ages. The stories have become the cornerstones of Western children's literature the characters eternal psychological archetypes.<br/><br/>"For his second collection Nye Eventyr New Fairy Tales Andersen wrote some of his most important and famous stories. He moved away from traditional folk material towards creating tales that came from his imagination. The words ‘told for children' were omitted from the new title as Andersen sought to engage adults and children alike. He had found a genre in which he had a unique voice" British Library Online Gallery.<br/><br/>The Stories:<br/><br/>Volume One<br/>1. The Angel<br/>2. The Nightingale<br/>3. The Sweethearts<br/>4.

First Edition in English of Hans Andersen's "Only a Fiddler" ANDERSEN Hans Christian. Only a Fiddler. Translated from the Danish. London: H. G. Clarke and Co. 1845. First edition in English. Originally published in Danish in 1837. Two twelvemo volumes. Measures 125 x 85 mm. 1 half-title v 208 16 catalog; 1 half-title v 180 12 catalog pp. Publisher's original gift binding bound in full dark brown morocco elaborately gilt-stamped on covers and spines. Adds list cost of Only a Fiddler for 5s. for cloth and 9s. for morocco. Half titles in red blue green and gold. All edges gilt. Previous owner's signatures on front free endpaper of vol. 1. A fine set. Only a Fiddler is a romantic tale and may be semi autobiographical the character Christian most likely representing Hans himself. His love interest is a Jewish girl named Naomi. Unlike most fairy tales this one does not end up with a happy ending. Naomi and Christian never end up together sharing only the feeling of emptiness. Soren Kierkegaard Andersen's neighbor at the time reviewed Only a Fiddler and writes that Andersen "completely lacks any philosophy of life". HBS 67501. $1100 H. G. Clarke and Co. hardcover books
