(BINDINGS - BUMPUS/RIVIERE). SPENSER, EDMUND
EPITHALAMION AND AMORETTI
London: John & E. Bumpus 1903. 211 x 140 mm. 8 1/2 x 5 1/2". 86 pp. <br/> LOVELY GREEN MOROCCO GILT AND INLAID FOR J. & E. BUMPUS stamped in gilt on rear turn-in LIKELY BY RIVIERE & SON upper cover with gilt fillet frame central panel with densely blind-stamped leafy vines on a gilt pointillé background accented with onlaid red morocco dots large oval at center and four smaller ovals all framed by gilt beads the central oval adorned with four gilt and onlaid red and white morocco Tudor roses 10 more such roses at corners and along the sides of outer frame lower cover with gilt fillet frame raised bands spine compartments with blind-stamped leafy sprig on pointillé ground with onlaid black ivory and red morocco dots gilt lettering turn-ins with gilt border gilt trio of leaves at corners all edges gilt. With engraved frontispiece portrait title page vignette two headpieces and two tailpieces. Upper cover and spine evenly faded to olive green likely from being displayed just a hint of bowing to boards but A VERY FINE COPY the text entirely clean fresh and bright and the binding unworn.<br/> <br/> This lovely printing of Spenserian poetry comes in an unusual and skillfully executed binding likely by Riviere & Son which was producing some of its very best work at the time of publication. The poems here were inspired by Spenser's courtship of and 1594 marriage to his second wife Elizabeth Boyle. Day calls "Amoretti" "a unique sonnet sequence in Renaissance England" and he is unreserved in his praise for "Epithalamion" calling it "the most beautiful nuptial poem in English and perhaps in any language." Spenser 1552 - 99 was the first modern English poet to achieve major stature and Day points out that those "influenced by Spenser are virtually a roster of the great English poets since his time" among them Milton Wordsworth Keats Rossetti and Tennyson. Bumpus bindings were done for the bookselling firm of John and Edward Bumpus founded in 1780. The firm long enjoyed a reputation as purveyors of fine and beautiful bindings without ever operating a bindery. Instead they outsourced the work to the best binders of the day including Riviere and Morrell the former being a likely choice here. The combination of swirling blind-stamped vines a densely stippled background and onlaid blossoms demonstrates creativity in design proficiency in a range of finishing techniques and meticulous execution. The five blank ovals on the upper cover bring to mind the layout of Cosway bindings a specialty of the Riviere firm in which those ovals would be filled with miniature paintings on ivory under glass. Cosway bindings could sometimes be ornate to the point of being overwhelming so the blank ovals here are a welcome moment of restraint amid the animation of the cover design. Apparently an earlier owner enjoyed displaying this binding--as who would not--and the leather has mellowed to an olive green--which may actually be a more pleasing foundation for the decoration than the original brighter green. Certainly the book saw no other use as the contents are as fresh as the day the volume left the printer. John & E. Bumpus unknown

(BINDINGS - SETS). SPENSER, EDMUND
THE WORKS
London: Bell and Daldy 1862. 229 x 152 mm. 9 x 6". Five volumes. Edited by John Payne Collier. <br/> VERY ATTRACTIVE DEEP BLUE PEBBLE-GRAIN MOROCCO HANDSOMELY GILT covers with frames of one dogtooth and three plain rules raised bands spines in antique-style compartments with delicate scrolling cornerpieces and intricate central fleuron surrounded by small tools densely gilt floral turn-ins marbled endpapers all edges gilt. With frontispiece portrait of Spenser in volume I. Front pastedown with armorial bookplate of Herbert Lionel Bashford M. A. Dibon Lodge Godalming. See: Day "History of English Literature to 1660" pp. 187-89. Spines just a shade darker than covers a couple covers with a slightly blotchy appearance due to leather preservative but quite an attractive set in generally fine condition the text fresh and bright and the leather lustrous.<br/> <br/> The first modern English poet to achieve major stature Spenser ca. 1552-99 in Day's words demonstrated "with his fluency in many meters and stanzaic forms . . . that English was at least the equal to any other language as a vehicle of great poetry." While his poems particularly "The Faerie Queene" look backward as the culmination of the allegorical verse tradition of the Pearl Poet Langland and Chaucer he has influenced with "his fertile imagination and especially his sensuous imagery and melodic language" nearly every important English poet who followed him. Day DNB praises Collier's "Spenser" first published in 1862 as "an excellent edition with the completest life of the poet that had as yet appeared." Despite his great knowledge and love of early English authors Collier 1789-1883 suffered a certain diminished respect because of his propensity for textual fabrication. This was true particularly in the case of the notorious "Perkins folio" supposedly containing an early copy of Shakespeare's works with superior variant readings which turned out to be forged. Britannica comments that these "fabrications . . . may charitably . . . be attributed to literary monomania but . . . it is difficult to speak with patience of them so completely did they for a long time bewilder the chronology of Shakespeare's writings." Apart from its important content this set is quite lovely on the shelf. The bindings are unsigned but they have the feel and appearance of work done by James Hayday 1796-1872 one of the most prominent and productive English binders of the 19th century. The present set is typical of Hayday's decorative work for a large market using high quality leather and being liberal with gilt embellishment. Bell and Daldy unknown

Radcliffe Spenser and the Tradition: English Poetry 1579-1830 William Kent was a skilled designer and decorator but a poor painter and draughtsman and despite their energy and directness his designs for The Faerie Queene are not wholly successful they were severely criticised by Horace Walpole in his Anecdotes of Painting in England. But the subjects represented contain many interesting reflections of Kent's involvement with picturesque gothic architecture and garden design including such romantic structures as the Hermitage and Merlin’s Cave a thatched mock-gothic building housing a library for Queen Caroline at Richmond. John Moore Paget of Cranmore Hall Somerset inherited from his father a "library of curious and valuable books and a decided taste for bibliology. A book-hunter from his youth his constant delight in after life was to search old book-stalls and add from time to time some scarce or quaint old work or rare engraving to his increasing collection."

The bindings are in excellent condition and these are crisp clean copies especially so. Very rarely are such fine copies encountered in the marketplace. TRULY FINE COPIES OF THIS BEAUTIFUL PRINTING OF SPENSER'S FAIRIE QUEENE ONE OF THE GREATEST WORKS IN THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE.<br> Edmund Spenser stands with William Shakespeare and John Milton in the history of English poetry and litereature. He is recognized as one of the premier craftsmen of modern English verse from its infancy and one of the greatest poets in the language. Spenser was known to his contemporaries as "the prince of poets†and was said by them to be "as great in English as Virgil in Latinâ€. He was greatly preferred over Shakespeare by Queen Elizabeth and many others of the day. He left behind his masterful essays in every genre of poetry from pastoral and elegy to epithalamion and epic. A century later John Milton would call Spenser "a better teacher than Aquinas†and was greatly influenced by him. Since then generations of readers have admired his subtle use of language his imagination his immense classical and religious learning and "his unerring ability to synthesize and ultimately to delightâ€.<br> THE FAERIE QUEEN is Spenser’s best known work and arguably his best. It is especially notable for its form: it was the first work written in what is now called Spenserian stanza and is also one of the longest poems in the English language. An allegorical work written in praise of Queen Elizabeth I it is largely symbolic the poem follows several knights in an examination of several virtues. It found not surprisingly great political favour with Elizabeth I and was such a public success that it quickly became Spenser's defining work. The last six books of the twelve Spenser intended were never written though two cantos noted as the Seventh and Eighth Bookes appear here. for J. Brindley, in New Bond-Street and S.

His father a noted British temperance activist and minister assembled his son's correspondence and wrote the explanatory text in this memorial. <br /> <br /> Burns spent two years and 20 pp on his time in New Zealand from 1879 to 1881. He states that on his arrival there was a depression and there were no openings anywhere. He states there is a great deal of drinking in NZ visits the New Zealand Alps and has memories of a NZ Christmas. His time in New South Wales is shorter but covers 15pp writing about his droving a mob of horses some 300 miles to make money and visiting Newcastle Tamworth the Rivers Darling & Barwon Goondi Homebush & Sydney. One copy listed on Trove Lib Aus ID 44683907 at the State Library of NSW.<br /> <br /> The International African Association was established at the Brussels Geographic Conference in 1876 and was conceived of as a multi European nation scientific and humanitarian group meant to explore central Africa. It rapidly devolved into separately organized nationalized expeditions bent on African land acquisition. Henry M. Stanley worked secretly at this time for Leopold of Belgium to organize the Congo as a state; the French explorer de Brazza claimed the western Congo basin for the French; and Great Britain and Portugal cooperated to block access to the Atlantic. <br /> <br /> Young Edward Burns had just been named the Chief of Grantville which was the principal Station of the International Association in the Kwilu district. Burns' letters record many of his encounters with Henry Stanley including this one written from the "station of Isangila River Congo Sept 21 1884: "Stanley has had often a great difficulty with idiots to deal with and he told me himself that had he only had a few good English men and not a useless mixture of Belgians Swedes Germans Italians and Americans he could have done four times what he has towards the opening up of the Congo. If only this thing was under English management it would be very different! but the Belgian management in Brussels is something frightful". p195. Stanley wrote a letter of condolence to Burns' father included here.<br /> <br /> Small 8vo 240pp. Cream gilt cloth covers marked spine darkened. Libraries Australia ID<br /> 44683907.
