Gibbon, Edward
Miscellaneous Works of Edward Gibbon Esquire. With Memoirs of His Life and Writings Composed by Himself: Illustrated from His Letters with Occasional Notes and Narrative by John Lord Sheffield.
London: Printed for A. Strahan and T. Cadell Jun. and W. Davies 1796. First edition of Gibbon’s memoirs letters and additional works posthumously collected and published by his closest friend John Baker Holroyd 1st Earl of Sheffield. Quarto bound in three quarters morocco over marbled boards morocco spine labels lettered in gilt elaborate gilt tooling to the spine in six compartments within raised gilt bands engraved frontispiece portrait of Gibbon. In near fine condition. A very attractive example of one of the first modern autobiographies published in the English language. When Gibbon died in 1794 he left his personal papers to Lord Sheffield who carefully selected and edited them. “Few men I believe have ever so fully unveiled their own character by a minute narrative of their sentiments and pursuits as Mr. Gibbon will here be found to have done; not with study and labour-not with an affected frankness-but with a genuine confession of his little foibles and peculiarities and a good-humoured and natural display of his own conduct and opinions.†Gibbon's Memoirs are considered one of the first autobiographies in the modern sense of the word and have a secure place in the canon of English literature. Printed for A. Strahan, and T. Cadell Jun. and W. Davies hardcover

GIBBON, Edward (1737-1794)
Miscellaneous Works of Edward Gibbon Esquire. With Memoirs of His Life and Writings Composed by Himself: Illustrated from His Letters with Occasional Notes and Narrative By John Lord Sheffield
London. Printed for A. Strahan and T. Cadell Jun. and W. Davies Successors to Mr. Cadell in the Strand. 1796. 4to 28.5cm The First Edition in 2 volumes XXV1Errata7031 & viii7262Errata and publishers' ads. in contemporary full diced calf boards panelled with gilt rosettes borders expertly reback in calf with gilt decorated raised bands gilt decorations and borders in the panels gilt titles gilt roll inner dentelles original marbled endpapers and edges inner linen hinges ownership signature on titles "John Jefferys 1811" and armorial bookplate "William Henry Smith" on the front paste-down endpaper frontis silhouette portrait in volume one some occasional light unobtrusive damp staining in the text some occasional wear on the boards a fine set ds1. ~ This is an invaluable autobiography of the controversial historian Edward Gibbon 1737-1794 author of The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire 1776-1788. Editor John Baker-Holroyd 1st Earl of Sheffield 1735-1821 Gibbon's close friend and literary executor remarks in the preface: "Few men have ever so fully unveiled their own character by a minute narrative of their sentiments and pursuits with a genuine confession of his little foibles and peculiarities and a good-humoured and natural display of his own conduct and opinions." These memoirs are most interesting for Gibbon's reflections on the development of his 'History' which sparked so much outrage from the public and the Church relative to its historical treatment of Christianity. They are also rich in commentary about his contemporaries and the political regimes in England and Revolutionary France. The two volumes are the first editions; a third volume was published separately in 1815 by John Murray. London. Printed for A. Strahan, and T. Cadell Jun. and W. Davies (Successors to Mr. Cadell) in the Strand. 1796 unknown
