Catherine II Empress of Russia
Drey Lustspiele wider Schwärmerey und Aberglauben. 1 Der Betrüger 2 Der Verblendete 3 Der sibirische Schaman. Von J. K. M. d. K. a. R. = Ihrer Kaiserlichen Majestät der Kaiserin aller ReuÃen Three Comedies against Sentimentality and Superstition. 1 The Deceiver 2 The Deceived 3 The Siberian Shaman
Berlin und Stettin: bey Friedrich Nicolai 1788. Octavo 15.5 Ã 9.2 cm. Contemporary half calf; spine richly gilt and with green title lable; edges red; XVI 347 pp. Frontis engraving by E. Henne. Bookplate of Martin E. Winkler to front pastedown. Boards very lightly rubbed; tiny ink shelfmark to first leaf; a few small smudges but overall a very good copy. First collected edition and the first edition printed in Germany of these three anti-Masonic plays by Catherine the Great which were first staged in Russia in 1786 at the Hermitage Theater in St. Petersburg. At the same time they were published in German translation by Christian Gottlieb Arndt 1743-1829 by at least two Russian publishers evidently to great acclaim. Catherine's plays were in particular a reaction to the arrival of Alessandro Cagliostro 1743-1795 in St. Petersburg where he sought to spread word of his system of "Egyptian Freemasonry" but was exposed and ridiculed. The publisher the German writer critic and bookseller Christoph Friedrich Nicolai 1733-1811 was one of the key representatives of the Berlin Enlightenment. His lengthy preface praises Catherine's wisdom and reaffirms the need for ridiculing occultism and superstition of all forms in this "century of philosophy." Curiously he also mentions that the Russian editions of Catherine's plays earned their publishers over twenty thousand rubles. Cat. Russica C344. From the collection of the German historian and icon collector Martin E. Winkler 1893-1982. KVK and OCLC locate no copies in North America only microform. hardcover books
