1925rif. Wil-1925-520 521 522The Nonesuch Press London 1925 1925. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Very Good. SHORT DESCRIPTION Year: 1925Edition: Nonesuch Press edition; complete in three volumesPublisher: The Nonesuch Press 16 Great James Street London DESCRIPTION BLAKE William. The Writings of William Blake. Edited in Three Volumes by Geoffrey Keynes. London: The Nonesuch Press 1925. Three volumes. nA handsome complete three-volume Nonesuch Press edition of the writings of William Blake edited by the distinguished Blake scholar and bibliographer Geoffrey Keynes. nThe set is attractively produced in the characteristic manner of the early Nonesuch Press bound in vellum-backed marbled boards with gilt lettering to the spines and retaining broad uncut margins. Illustrated throughout with reproductions of Blake's work including a striking portrait after the life mask made by Deville in 1823 and reproductions of Blake's visionary designs. nThe bindings show the natural toning marking and surface variation associated with vellum with some rubbing and wear visible to the extremities. Internally the volumes present well with the substantial handmade-style paper and generous typography giving the set considerable presence. nA desirable combination of Blake Geoffrey Keynes and the Nonesuch Press bringing together literary importance scholarship and fine press book production. STORY Few figures in English culture unite poetry and visual art as completely as William Blake. Poet engraver painter and visionary Blake created an intensely personal imaginative world that was only gradually recognised as one of the great achievements of the Romantic age. This 1925 edition occupies an important place in the twentieth-century rediscovery of Blake. Its editor Geoffrey Keynes became one of the foremost Blake scholars and bibliographers of his generation helping establish reliable texts and a clearer understanding of Blake's extraordinarily complicated body of work. The choice of the Nonesuch Press was particularly appropriate. Founded only a few years earlier Nonesuch sought to combine the traditions of the private press with the technical capabilities of commercial printing. The resulting books are celebrated for typography paper illustration and design without abandoning the practical form of the printed book. Here Blake's writings are given the physical treatment they deserve: three substantial volumes generous margins marbled boards vellum spines and illustrations drawn from his artistic legacy. It is not simply an edition of Blake's writings but an artefact from the period in which Blake's reputation was being firmly established for a modern readership. WHY THIS MATTERS This set has several strong collecting points: William Blake — one of the defining figures of British Romanticism. Geoffrey Keynes — among the most important twentieth-century Blake scholars. Nonesuch Press — one of the most collectable British private/fine presses of the twentieth century. Complete three-volume set. Attractive vellum-backed marbled bindings. Illustrated with reproductions of Blake's art including the memorable image taken from his 1823 life mask. A substantial and visually impressive edition suitable for both a serious Blake collection and a fine-press library. CURRENT DESCRIPTION Complete set in three volumes. Finely printed by The Nonesuch Press and edited by Geoffrey Keynes one of the foremost Blake scholars of the twentieth century. This edition represents one of the earliest major scholarly attempts to present Blakes writings in a coherent and authoritative collected form combining literary and artistic significance. Large quarto volumes illustrated throughout with high quality reproductions of Blakes engravings and designs including full page plates such as War and Joseph of Arimathea among the Rocks of Albion along with the well known life mask portrait. Bound in full vellum spines with gilt lettering marbled boards. The bindings remain structurally sound with expected natural toning and marking to vellum. Internally generally clean with light spotting in places. Some edge wear and a small area of loss to the upper inner margin of one leaf not affecting text or plates. A highly desirable fine press production combining craftsmanship scholarship and the enduring appeal of Blakes visionary work. Offered by Atlas Rare Books specialists in rare and antiquarian books.

FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request - IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT - Flawless copy brand new pristine never opened -- 148 pp. ; 66 ills. -- with a bonus offer--; The English poet and artist William Blake 1757-1827 was uncommonly aware of the evils of slavery in his time having illustrated Narrative of a Five Year's Expedition against the Revolted Negroes of Surinam 1791 John Stedman's firsthand account of the brutal suppression of a slave revolt in South America. But for Blake the interest was not only in physical but mental enslavement. The ubiquity of "mind-forg'd manacles" as he put it in his great poem "London" in a rapidly industrializing Europe compelled some of his most dramatic and complex text and images. With over 60 color reproductions from Blake's illuminated books watercolors and engravings all from the collection of The British Museum William Blake and Slavery: Mind-forg'd Manacles presents a strong statement on this great artist's pungent and independent political vision. It includes an essay on the theme of slavery in Blake's visual imagery by the exhibition curator and leading Blake scholar David Bindman as well as a text on Olaudah Equiano an African ex-slave who campaigned for the abolition of slavery by the novelist and literary critic Darryl Pinckney. This book commemorates both the bicentennial anniversary of the abolition of the slave trade in the British Empire and the two-hundred-and-fiftieth anniversary of Blake's birth. . 2007. 1853322598 .

FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request - IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT - Flawless copy brand new pristine never opened -- 160 pages well-illustrated 4to. -- with a bonus offer--; Lieutenant Commander John Blake has drawn on his extensive knowledge of some of the most impressive collections in the world such as the Hydrographic Office The Admiralty Library Manuscript Collection The National Maritime Museum and The Royal Geographical Society in the UK and the Library of Congress and South Street Seaport Museum in the USA together with his experience in the Royal Navy to provide a fascinating and astonishingly well-illustrated account of the role that charts have played in planning preventing conducting and recording war on water. A comprehensive introduction discusses the major themes with regard to naval warfare navigation and chart-making; important topics such as why charting was necessary how valuable the knowledge was and to whom who was responsible for data gathering and chart-making the technology and techniques involved and the strategic and technical effects of accurate and inaccurate charting. Chapters are then organized chronologically. The first covers the period from earliest recorded history to the fifteenth century; thereafter they unfold century by century. Each chapter opens with a one-spread overview of the main actions and developments of that century and is followed by a plate section of charts with extended captions that explain their relevance. They cover major battles amphibious attacks and single-ship duels from the Napoleonic Wars The American War of Independence and Civil War as well as other major and lesser know actions around the globe. These are supported by extracts from logbooks navigational views and illustrations that reveal how a battle unfolded. Stand-alone feature boxes explore peripheral themes such as the role of the privateer dealing with piracy secrecy and subterfuge and the naval painters. The various elements weave a rich history that not only reveals the emergent skills of surveying but the technical innovations and strategic developments of waging war ar sea. . 2006. 1577151054 .
