Illustrated with a portrait of Cervantes and 68 copperplate illustrations drawn by John Vanderbank and engraved by Gerard Vander Gucht from a Spanish-language Tonson edition of 1738 Lord Carteret's edition - the first deluxe edition ever printed and the first edition in Spanish published in England with new page labels. Vanderbank a popular portraitist 37 of whose works are in the National Portrait Gallery studied with Godfrey Kneller. The choice of a portraitist becomes clear in the "Advertisement concerning the Prints" where John Oldfield explains the restrained aesthetic hinging on facial expression rather than action which went into their planning. The portrait of Cervantes by G. Kent engraved by George Vertue is opposite the first page of the 90-page "Life of Michael de Cervantes Saavedra" dated 1738 in Volume I. Ten engraved headpieces and initials. Text and illustrations are clean but for some occasional light foxing or soiling. Recently bound to period in quarter calf with gilt rules and red and green labels on spine and marbled paper boards.

Jarvis 1675-1739 was a portrait painter and translator. A part of the literary circle of Addison Pope and Swift his stylized portraits of society ladies were very fashionable. Jarvis advised Sir Robert Walpole in forming his art collection and was appointed king's painter in 1723. "His major literary undertaking was an English translation of Cervantes' Don Quixote.

Cervantes de Salazar's sources were the <i>Letters</i> of Cortes; the memoirs of Alonso de Ojeda and Andres de Tapia captains in Cortes' army; the <i>Memoranda</i> of Motilinia; the work of Lopez de Gomara; and the information gathered from others who had taken part in the conquest who were sill living in Mexico City twenty-five years later from whom he received useful information.

El Ingenioso Hidalgo Don Quixote de la Mancha. Nueva edicion corrigida por la Real Academia Espaola
Madrid: JoaquÃn Ibarra 1780. Bindings with some light wear at extremities a few areas n sides peeled some occasional pale foxing but generally a very well-preserved set in a contemporary Spanish binding. 4 volumes large 4to 301 x 223 mm. Four engraved frontispieces folding map portrait and 31 engraved plates after A. Carnicero J. del Castillo J. Brunete B. Barranco P. Arnal G. Gil and G. Ferro. Contemporary Spanish calf stained green calf panels on the sides within gilt-tooled borders spines in seven compartments with six raised bands git-lettered in two an ornate floral gilt panel in the remaining all edges gilt. Provenance: Ricardo Olivera inkstamps on titles and some interior text leaves. The greatest illustrated edition of Don Quixote ever published by the finest Spanish printer of the late eighteenth century. JoaquÃn Ibarra employed the best illustrators and engravers including Del Castillo Brunete and Carnicero and combined their superlative images with exquisite typographic work resulting in one of the finest illustrated books produced anywhere in Europe at the time.<br/><br/>"In 1780 the Royal Spanish Academy created a national treasure when it commissioned Joaquin Ibarra to print a deluxe edition of Don Quixote. Regarded as one of the most magnificent books of its kind the Academy edition includes lavish engravings careful editorial emendations to the text a biography of Cervantes and the first map to chart Quixote's itinerary. The most influential work of literature from the Spanish Golden Age Don Quixote remained a cornerstone of the artistic imagination 175 years after its initial publication" 'Visions & Nightmares: Four Centuries of Spanish Drawings' curated by Edward Payne The Morgan Librtary & Museum 2014. Palau also rightly preferred this edition of all thus far published in any language. The type was specially designed for the book and the text follows the 1605 first edition. Palau 52024 "Magnifica edicion y superior en belleza artistica a todas las que hasta entonces se habian hecho en Espana y en el extranjero"; Cohen-De Ricci 218-19 "Magnifique édition comme typographie et comme ornamentation".

Spanish printer Joaquin Ibarra made several important technical developments in press printing book-making typography and paper-making. In his printed work Ibarra sought to achieve a perfect flow of harmonious type inks illustration margins and textures. He worked with the best painters and engravers of his time and based on a secret formula he developed the Ibarra ink gained a reputation for its exceptional quality and brilliance. The present volume was printed on "ex profeso" paper with melted types of "ex novo" on the pages both of which Ibarra created in his Madrid workshop specifically for this project. In near fine condition with ownership inscriptions and some toning to the page edges some loss to the edges of the license page. A very bright example of both Cervantes' and Ibarra's best-known works rare and desirable in this condition. Often cited as the first modern novel Cervantes' masterpiece Don Quixote remains not only the most influential work of literature to emerge from the Spanish Golden Age but the most important work of the entire Spanish literary canon. First published in 1605 Don Quixote gained immediate popularity in Spain for its "variety liveliness and gibes at the famous" while Cervantes' universal portrayal of the human condition has cemented its status as "one of those universal works which are read by all ages at all times" PMM. The Ibarra edition swiftly became the preferred edition in Spain when it appeared in 1780 Palau 52024. "It is interesting to realize that the first modern novel was composed by a sick aged and impoverished man who believed that a satirical tale might produce more revenue than the poems and plays that he regarded as his more serious mission.

El Ingenioso Hidalgo Don Quixote de la Mancha: Nueva Edicion Corregida Por La Real Academia Espanola.
Madrid: Don Joaquin Ibarra 1780. The deluxe illustrated Ibarra edition of Cervantes' masterpiece. Quartos 4 volumes. Bound in full 19th century green morocco with central motif and cornerpieces stamped in blind to the panels gilt titles and tooling to the spine elaborate double-ruled gilt borders marbled endpapers all edges gilt engraved frontispiece to each volume and 31 engraved plates throughout 2-page folding engraved map of <span class="match">Don </span><span class="match">Quixote</span>'s travels to the rear of volume 1. Spanish printer Joaquin Ibarra made several important technical developments in press printing book-making typography and paper-making. In his printed work Ibarra sought to achieve a perfect flow of harmonious type inks illustration margins and textures. He worked with the best painters and engravers of his time and based on a secret formula he developed the Ibarra ink gained a reputation for its exceptional quality and brilliance. The present volume was printed on "ex profeso" paper with melted types of "ex novo" on the pages both of which Ibarra created in his Madrid workshop specifically for this project. In near fine condition. A superior example of Ibarra's best-known work. Don Quixote tells the tale of a man so entranced by reading about the chivalrous romantic ideals touted in books that he decides to take up his sword and become a knight-errant himself with the aims of defending the helpless and warding off the wicked. With his somewhat confused laborer-turned-squire Sancho Panza they roam the world together and have adventures that have haunted reader's imaginations for nearly four hundred years. Don Quixote is generally recognized as the first modern novel. Over those years it has had an incredible influence on thousands of writers from Dickens to Faulkner who once said he reread it once a year "just as some people read the Bible". Vladimir Nabokov is quoted as saying "Don Quixote is greater today than he was in Cervantes's womb. He looms so wonderfully above the skyline of literature a gaunt giant on a lean nag that the book lives and will live through his sheer vitality. He stands for everything that is gentle forlorn pure unselfish and gallant. The parody has become a paragon." Printed for La Real Academia Espanola the Spanish Royal Academy by Joaquin Ibarra y Marin this edition was intended to be a supreme example of Spanish craftsmanship lavished on the nation's greatest literary work. This edition excels in beauty of type design paper illustration and printing as well as incorporating a carefully edited and corrected text. The illustrations and delightful ornaments were designed by the best Spanish artists of the day the paper was milled expressly for this edition and the type was specially cut. It contains the first map depicting the route taken by Don Quixote and Sancho Panza through Spain. The edition's fame among bibliophiles was thoroughly established throughout Europe within a very few years. The English bibliomane William Davis wrote in 1821 that "the celebrated Ibarra edition is so well known that I need only refer to M. Paris's sale 1791 where a copy sold for GBP16 16 shillings and Col. Stanley's where a copy sold for GBP17 6 shillings 6 pence" A Journey Round the Library of a Bibliomaniac.

First Part of El Ingenioso Hidalgo Don Quixote de la Mancha. Barcelona 1617.
Barcelona: Bautista Sorita for Miguel Gracian 1617. The earliest extant Barcelona edition of Cervantes' masterpiece and the first part of the first complete edition of Don Quixote. Small octavo bound in full contemporary calf with gilt titles and elaborate gilt tooling to the spine gilt turn-ins marbled endpapers all edges red illustrated title page. The second part of the first complete edition was printed simultaneously by Sebastian Matevad and sold as a complete set with the present volume by Miguel Gracian Juan Simon and Rafael Vives. Small stamp and inscription to the title page. Bookplate to the pastedown. Scarce and desirable. "Cervantes' great ironical romantic story is written in a style so noble so nervous so humane so branded with reality that as the wise critic has said the mere touch and impact of it puts courage into our veins. Not to have ever opened it. is to have missed being present at one of the 'great gestures' of the undying unconquerable spirit of humanity" Powys 27. Widely regarded as "the first modern novel" Cervantes' masterpiece was first published in two parts in 1605 and 1615. This the first known edition of the first part of Don Quixote printed in Barcelona was printed by Bautista Sorita for three different Barcelona booksellers: Miguel Gracian Juan Simon and Rafael Vives. The second part was printed simultaneously in 1617 by Sebastian Matevad for the same booksellers making the two parts combined the first complete edition of Don Quixote though just as the two parts were usually bound separately they are now found typically found separately when they seldom appear.

l'Ingenieux chevalier Don Quichotte de La Manche. Traduction Nouvelle. Illustre par Grandville
Tours: A Mame et Cie Imprimeurs-Libraires 1858. Both parts abridged but then it is the Grandville steel engravings that are the attraction here; good strong strikes if a bit diminutive no patch on Dore' of course. Hardbound in quarter pressed morocco with morocco corner-tips over green cloth boards old marbled endsheets a nineteenth century custom job in sound shape details below but first of all item has been sophisticated by a clever amateur. The giveaway is the much-too-strong tint a modern dark blue to textblock edges which clashes with book's general aesthetic; adroitly applied edge tints are dry stroked on with saturated cottonball but simply not comme il faut. Done to disguise an ex library state possibly. Further the corner-tips have most probably been strengthened with glue. As for the item as it stands there are trivial abrasions and text paper is not fully alkaline and is foxed throughout. nothing else to report. Plates are all in good condition these were struck on alkaline tissue and laid down on thickish alkaline paper. Viva Grandville! who has his own personal vision of our madman.

Pamplona: Nicolas de Assiayn Impressor del Reyno de Navarra 1614. Second edition. xvi 391 3 pp. Collation: ¶8 A-2Z8 3A-3C8. 8vo. Early twentieth-century pigskin spine titled in gilt. Light rubbing to extremities some toning and spotting to text small wormhole at inner margin of title-page and following two leaves light dampstain to margins of first few gatherings. Contemporary inscription on title. Second edition. xvi 391 3 pp. Collation: ¶8 A-2Z8 3A-3C8. 8vo. The rare true second edition of Cervantes' Novelas Ejemplares a collection of 12 novellas inspired by Boccaccio and first published by Robles in Madrid in 1613 between publication of the first and second parts of Don Quixote 1605 1615.<br/><br/>A Madrid edition of 1614 with the imprint of Juan de la Cuesta and Francisco de Robles was long thought to be the second edition and is identified as such by Ruis. It is in fact a piracy variously ascribed to the Lisbon printer Antonio Alvare vide Astrana MarÃn and more recently to the the Seville printer Gabriel Ramos Bejarano vide Jaime Moll "Novelas ejemplares Madrid 1614: edición contrahecha sevillana". <br/><br/>The present 1614 Pamplona edition is the true second edition with the privilege from the kingdom of Navarre granted on 11 January 1614. Cervantes' Madrid publisher Francisco de Robles had obtained privileges from Castille and Arragón for the 1613 first edition published in July of that year. He was determined to combat illegal reprintings and sued booksellers in Zaragosa intending to pirate the Novelas MarÃn VII p. 74. But he was unable to stop either the indignity of the 1614 piracy which used his own name or this authorized 1614 Pamplona edition printed by Nicolas de Assiayn. <br/><br/>This edition removes the sonnet of Juan de SolÃs Mexia printed in the first edition. Assiayn published a second Pamplona edition in 1617.<br/> <br/>The 1613 Madrid edition is rare known only in a handful of copies and we trace no copies at auction. The 1614 Pamplona edition is likewise uncommon with OCLC locating 9 complete copies only 2 of which are in the US UPenn and University of Chicago and the only recent auction record for an incomplete copy lacking its title-page.

London: Printed for C. Cooke "Cooke's Edition" n.d. Hardcover. Poor. Five volumes complete twenty-fourmo size size approx. 1214 pp. Originally published in two volumes in 1605 and 1615 Don Quixote is considered the most influential work of literature from the Spanish Golden Age and the entire Spanish literary canon; the story has become such a part of our culture that the terms "tilting at windmills" and "quixodic" have entered the vernacular. <br/><br/>This likely an early reprint of "Cooke's Edition" as the title page is undated which edition was apparently first published in the mid eighteenth-century. The bindings are quite shabby and some of the boards only on by the binding cords we offer it as-is.<br/><br/>___DESCRIPTION: Five volumes each volume in half leather over marbled boards red leather spine labels according to the title pages "Embellished with Superb Engravings"; twenty-fourmo size 5 5/8" by 3 1/2" pagination: Vol. I i-iv title page and dedication i ii-xxi 22-23 xxiv "Life of Cervantes" i-ii Translator's Statement i ii-viii Preface 1 2-196; Vol. II 1-3 4-239; Vol. III 1-3 4-247; Vol. IV 1-3 4-247 and Vol. V 1-3 4-247. <br/><br/>___CONDITION: We are grading as "Poor" as the bindings are extremely worn the leather dry and cracking the marbled boards quite rubbed and while the text blocks seem strong several of the boards are almost detached; the interiors are mostly clean although several leaves are tattered around the margins the only markings we see a pencilled name on the front free endpaper of each volume and light prior bookseller marks also in pencil on the front free endpaper of the first volume. <br/><br/>___POSTAGE: International customers please note that additional postage may apply as the standard does not always cover costs; please inquire for details.<br/><br/>___Swan's Fine Books is pleased to be a member of the ABAA ILAB and IOBA and we stand behind every book we sell.

The History of Don-Quixote. The First Parte. The Second Part of the History of the Valorous and Witty Knight-Errant Don Quixote of the Mancha. Written in Spanish by Michael Cervantes: and now translated into English.
London: Edward Blount 1620. Exceedingly rare first complete edition in English of Cervantes' masterpiece comprising the second edition <span class="match">of</span> <span class="match">the</span> first part and <span class="match">the</span> first edition <span class="match">of</span> <span class="match">the</span> second part. Small octavo 2 volumes bound in full calf with red morocco spine labels lettered in gilt gilt turn-ins frontispiece portrait of the author to Vol. I engraved headpieces tailpieces and initials. Translated from the original Spanish by Thomas Shelton his first English translation published in 1612 was the first translation in any language and took him only forty days to complete. The true first edition of Don Quixote was published in Madrid by Francisco de Robles in two parts in 1605 and 1614. The first part of Shelton's first English version was published in 1612 with the second part added in 1620 both published in quarto. The present edition is the first complete edition published in the English language with both the first and second parts published and sold simultaneously. Volume one is a second edition with the text block trimmed as usual in very good condition. Volume two is a first edition lacking the engraved title as with many copies and believed to be indicative of an earlier state. "Duff suggested that the reason this plate is lacking in so many copies of the second part is because it was not prepared until after a good many copies had been sold without it" Pforzheimer 140; Grolier Langland to Wi<span class="match">the</span>r 213 Early ownership signature most likely Herbert Lunsford located at the head of the errata sheet. Sir Herbert Lunsford c. 1610-1664 was a military figure and brother to Thomas Lunsford who is reputed to have been a ruthless pirate and fearless adventurer. There are some who believe that these brothers along with their brother Henry served as the models for the Three Musketeers. Catalog entry handwritten note and newspaper clipping containing bibliographical information affixed to verso of front board. An exceptional example of this rarity very rare to find complete. Often cited as the first modern novel Cervantes' masterpiece Don Quixote remains not only the most influential work of literature to emerge from the Spanish Golden Age but the most important work of the entire Spanish literary canon. The Shelton translation is generally considered the English translation that "realizes Cervantes' manner more nearly than any successor." DNB. "It is interesting to realize that the first modern novel was composed by a sick aged and impoverished man who believed that a satirical tale might produce more revenue than the poems and plays that he regarded as his more serious mission. Under the guise of a parody on romances of chivalry Cervantes created a study of reality and illusion madness and sanity that links him with such acute 16th-century students of psychology as Erasmus Rabelais Montaigne and Shakespeare" Folger's Choice 30.

Vida Y Hechos Del Ingenioso Hidalgo Don Quixote De La Mancha: Con Muy Bellas Estampas Gravadas Sobre Los Dibujos de Coypel Primer Pinto de el Rey de Francia.
En Haia The Hague: Por P. Gosse y A. Moetjens 1744. Rare early printing and one of the most highly coveted editions of Cervantes' masterpiece. Octavo 4 volumes bound in full calf gilt titles and elaborate gilt tooling to the spine burgundy spine labels triple gilt ruled marbled endpapers all edges red ribbons bound in with numerous engravings after the drawings of Antoine Coypel renowned for the paintings he produced for King Louis XIV of France including those decorating the ceiling of the Royal chapel at Versailles. In near fine condition. An exceptional example. Don Quixote tells the tale of a man so entranced by reading about the chivalrous romantic ideals touted in books that he decides to take up his sword and become a knight-errant himself with the aims of defending the helpless and warding off the wicked. With his somewhat confused laborer-turned-squire Sancho Panza they roam the world together and have adventures that have haunted reader's imaginations for nearly four hundred years. Don Quixote is generally recognized as the first modern novel. Over those years it has had an incredible influence on thousands of writers from Dickens to Faulkner who once said he reread it once a year "just as some people read the Bible". Vladimir Nabokov said of the book: "Don Quixote is greater today than he was in Cervantes's womb. He looms so wonderfully above the skyline of literature a gaunt giant on a lean nag that the book lives and will live through his sheer vitality. He stands for everything that is gentle forlorn pure unselfish and gallant. The parody has become a paragon." Por P. Gosse y A. Moetjens unknown books

It has been highly praised as the most accurate translation of the novel up to that time but also strongly criticised for being stiff and humourless although it went through many printings during the 19th century."

Cervantes Saavedra Miguel de Gustave Dore
The History of Don-Quixote.
London: Cassell Petter and Galpin c. 1868. Famous Dore illustrated edition of Cervantes with 120 full-page wood-<span class="glossaryQtip qTip">engravings</span> and 257 head- and tail-pieces by Gustave Dore engraved in the wood by Heliodore Pisan. Quarto bound in contemporary three quarters leather gilt titles to the spine raised bands illustrations by Dore. With text edited by J.W. Clark and a biographical notice of Cervantes by T. Teignmouth Shore. In near fine condition. One can hardly deny that Gustave Dore is not merely one of the most popular but also one of the greatest of all illustrators. Don Quixote was a text calculated to test even Dore. He was matching himself against Coypel and Tony Johannot not to mention the Spanish illustrators of the great Ibarra edition published in Madrid in 1780. He met the challenge superbly. At first he intended only 40 designs but Cervantes' book captured his imagination and he arranged for a major work. Don Quixote and Sancho Panza reached their definitive rendering in Dore's designs" Ray 328-29 337. The English-language edition of Dore's Don Quixote first appeared in 30 monthly parts beginning in December 1864. In September of 1866 Cassell announced the publication of Don Quixote in book form. "In those two and a half years Dore went from being virtually unknown in England to being the most famous illustrator in the world" Malan 67. Cassell, Petter, and Galpin hardcover books
