CLEOMENES THE SPARTAN HEROE
1692. DRYDEN John. CLEOMENES THE SPARTAN HEROE. A Tragedy as it is acted in the Theatre Royal. To which is prefixt The Life of Cleomenes. London: Printed for Jacob Tonson . 1692. First edition. Quarto. A4a2B-C4d-e4B-K4. 21.5 x 16.5 cm. 1228472 pp. In a shelfworn Roxburghe-style binding: black quarter leather with marbled paper sides gilt-stamped spine title. One leaf C4 pp. 15-16 in `The Life' has a 9 cm horizontal closed tear near the bottom edge. The top of the running title on p. 43 G2r is shaved. Otherwise some mild age-staining and spotting throughout and in very good condition overall. This was the next to the last of Dryden's plays to be produced. Owing to Dryden's illness the fifth act of the play was completed by Thomas Southerne. The life of Cleomenes was translated from Plutarch by Thomas Creech. It is believed that the revival of some of Shakespeare's Roman plays about this time turned the attention of both playwrights and public to classical themes.

Dryden John
King Arthur: Or The British Worthy. A Dramatck Opera
London: Printed for Jacob Tonson 1691. First edition. Hardcover. Fine. 4to. 14511pp. The half-title is present with its advertisement on the reverse. Also present are the Prologue and the Epilogue. The earliest copies lack these leaves but an unsigned leaf was inserted after A4 headed "Prologue to the OPERA Spoken by Mr. Betterton." H2 was cancelled and a new leaf headed H2v: The EPILOGUE. Spoken by Mrs. Bracegirdle the word FINIS being transferred from H2 to H2v. The text block shows some aging and light staining; it is finely bound in full crushed crimson morocco unsigned but reminiscent of Sangorski: Spine in six compartments with raised bands intricately tooled in gilt; gilt rules on the boards; gilt inner dentelles; endpapers of crimson Victorian cloth in a linen effect. Top edge gilt. The text has been bulked out with several pages of blank paper in the rear. A nice copy of the scarce first edition in a fine binding. Dryden's 'King Arthur' owes little to the Arthur of history of romance. The play centers around a battle with Oswald a Saxon leader which Arthur wins. He also wing the faire but blind Emmeline whose sight is restored by Merlin. The play was first performed at the Queen's Theatre with music by Purcell and marks the likely beginning of a rekindling of interest in King Arthur and other things monarchial after their suppression by Cromwell and the Commonwealth.
