Henry Fielding
Histoire de Tom Jones, ou l'Enfant Trouvé, traduction de l'anglois de M. Fielding Par M. D. L. P. erichie d'estampes deffinees par M. Gravelot. Tome Premier – Second – Troisimie – Quatrieme
In 8° (18,1x10,5 cm); 4 tomi: (4), XI, (1), 336 pp. e 4 c. di tav. fuori testo compresa antiporta, (4), 344 pp. e 4 c. di tav. fuori testo, (4), 282 pp. e 4 c. di tav. fuori testo, (4), 341, (1) pp. e 4 c. di tav. fuori testo. L'ultima carta di indice del quarto volume è stata per errore rilegata, per errore, alla fine del terzo volume. L'ultimo volume presente un leggerissimo alone al margine basso del volume, probabilmente antecedente alla stampa, sempre leggerissimo ed ininfluente. Esemplare in buone-ottime condizioni di conservazione. Legature della prima metà dell'ottocento, in mezza-pelle verde con piatti foderati con carta marmorizzata coeva. Titolo, numero dei volumi e filetti in oro al dorso. Prima edizione francese di questo celeberrimo romanzo del grande scrittore, drammaturgo e giornalista inglese, Henry Fielding (Sharpham, 22 aprile 1707 – Lisbona, 8 ottobre 1754). Tom Jones è considerato il suo capolavoro. Assieme a Daniel Defoe, in primis e a Samuel Richardson, Fielding è considerato uno dei padri fondatori del romanzo realista inglese. Ed è proprio una parodia di Richardson che Fielding nel 1741, fa il suo debutto nel mondo dei romanzi con il suo "An Apology for the Life of Mrs. Shamela Andrews", parodia di "Pamela, o la virtù premiata". Tom Jones è universalemnte considerato come uno dei più grandi romanzi della letteratura inglese. L'opera è allo stesso tempo un romanzo picaresco (vicenda avventurosa, ritmo narrativo rapido ed incalzante) e di formazione dal ritmo sempre incalzante che ricostruisce la vita avventurosa ricca di "disavventure" del giovane protagonista, Tom Jones e della sua amata Sophia Western. L'opera si concolude poi con le nozze. L'opera che si sviluppo lungo una tarama sapiente, è pervasa da una garbata satira prototipi ed emblemi della società inglese dell'epoca, cosa che fa di Fielding anche un precurosore di Dickens e da Thackeray. First franch edition. Rif. Bibl.: Cioranescu, 36934; Cohen, 394; Quérard III, 120.

Translated to Turkish by Mina Urgan. The History of Tom Jones, a Foundling, often known simply as Tom Jones, is a comic novel by English playwright and novelist Henry Fielding. It is both a Bildungsroman and a picaresque novel. It was first published on 28 February 1749 in London, and is among the earliest English prose works to be classified as a novel. It is the earliest novel mentioned by W. Somerset Maugham in his 1948 book Great Novelists and Their Novels among the ten best novels of the world. Tom Jones is generally regarded as Fielding's greatest book and as an influential English novel. Urgan was a Turkish academic, translator, author and socialist politician. She translated works of Thomas Malory (c. 1415-1471), Henry Fielding (1707-1754), Honoré de Balzac (1799-1850), Aldous Huxley (1894-1963), Graham Greene (1904-1991), William Golding (1911-1993), John Galsworthy (1867-1933) and Shakespeare (1564-1616) into Turkish. She was honored with the "Golden Book Award" in 1993. For her work Virginia Woolf, she received the "Sedat Simavi Literature Award" in 1995, and the "Association of People of Letters Honor Award" in 1996. (Wikipedia). First Edition.

Henry Guillemard [ Francis Henry Hill Guillemard ] (1852-1933), English botanist and traveller:
Francis Henry Hill Guillemard English botanist. Elegiac Autograph Letter Signed 'Henry Guillemard' writing movingly to 'Annie & her coadjutors' on his impending death.
On letterhead of the Old Mill House Cambridge. 11 August 1933. 4pp. 12mo. Bifolium. In good condition lightly aged and worn. He begins by stating that he has of late found the act of writing almost impossible but that when he goes into his garden 'there are various things determined that you should not be forgotten; above all those beautiful white Turks' Cap lilies'. He has not been able to enter his garden and now realises 'that old Charon is in the offing with that low flat boat of his ready to convey me not entirely unwilling to the other side. One has for some time been increasingly interested in the new abode which my old ancestor Jean wrote so well about in his "Combat entre l'Homme et la Mort".' He has all manner of visitors: 'I think I have been able to get at them because all through life I have seldom had any axe to grind and have been interested in things. . My three years on the Marchesa between 1882 and 1884 made me hungry for someone who wd recognise even a simple allusion - and I was desperately hard at work too.' He ends in elegiac tone: 'The thermometer has sunk & leaves me happier: soon I suppose I shall be putting a match to the fire in my grate. A wonderful place England. But I am thankful to be alive & fairly well in it & to be able to say that I always have delightful memories of our talks and hopes that they have not finished. I must get old Charon to wait a bit - stand him a drink at the "Pipe & Eel"'. He signs off 'Unchangeably yours Henry Guillemard'. On letterhead of the Old Mill House, Cambridge. 11 August 1933. unknown

Henry Hallam (1777-1859), English Whig historian [Dr Thomas Arnold (1795-1842), headmaster of Rugby School, and Regius Professor
Henry Hallam historian responds indignantly to Dr Thomas Arnold's claim that he has made 'false quotations'. Autograph Letter Signed 'Henry Hallam' to Dr Thomas Arnold defending himself against an allegation made in a lecture at Oxford.
24 Wilton Crescent London. 28 February 1842. 4pp. 4to. Bifolium with mourning border. In fair condition lightly aged with short closed tears at edges of some folds. An excellent letter indignantly countering what must be the most serious accusation one historian can level against another that of making 'false quotations'. The recipient is not named but from the context is undoubtedly the Headmaster of Rugby School Thomas Arnold who since the previous year had held the Regius Professorship of History at Oxford and would die four months later on 12 June 1842. The letter begins: 'Dear Sir You will not I am certain consider it as a liberty if I address you a few lines on the subject of an allusion last word underlined to a passage in my History of the Middle Ages which I understand you to have made in a recent lecture at Oxford. The great respect which I bear to you will be a sufficient excuse; for in an ordinary case I should have waited for publication of the lecture & made my observations then or not as I might have thought it expedient'. He does not have 'an exact knowledge of what you said concerning me' but assures Arnold of the 'very great annoyance' he felt when 'Dr Buckland i.e. the geologist and cleric William Buckland 1784-1856 some weeks since told me in his jocular language “Dr Arnold has been blowing you up for false quotations'. He did not have 'the slightest notion what was the specific charge' but considered it 'a most serious imputation upon any writer' and subsequently 'obtained some information' from 'Dr. B.' 'vague indeed but enough to make me conjecture that your charge related to the well-known passage in Eligius. This has been confirmed since by a letter which a friend of mine received from Oxford; but the words said to have been used by you are very loosely given from memory. It appears however that you spoke in very handsome terms of my general character as a faithful historian'. Arnold has almost certainly overlooked the fact that 'in the fourth edition of my work & in all that followed I have retracted the error into which I had been led so far as it was an error in the fullest manner; not silently correcting or omitting the passage but leaving it as it stood with a note acknowledging it to be highly exaggerated in consequence of the wrong interpretation which through Mosheim's quotation many besides myself had put upon the original writer's meaning. On reading this note again after several years it appears to me that I have gone to the utmost in saying that the passage quoted by Mosheim ought never to be applied again; for in reality it is one of importance & serves to confirm what Mosheim himself has said though Maclaine & those who followed him went much farther than it would warrant.' He discusses a Latin sentence declaring: 'I need not add that this was no false quotation nor even a garbled one on the part of Mosheim who gave an entire - still less on my part who only quoted him & Robertson.' He ends by declaring his expectation that 'when your lectures go to the press you will do me the justice of taking notice' that he has corrected 'the error into which I had been led'. In conclusion he observes for the purpose of bring his work 'to the public eye it has been absolutely necessary to give modern authorities'. 24 Wilton Crescent [London]. 28 February 1842. unknown
