1900rif. 7245Macmillan and Co 14 x 23 Couverture rigide London 1900 Deux volumes in-8 complets, reliure demi-veau cerise à coins de l'époque, signée du relieur-libraire J & E Bumpus 350 Oxford Street, dos très orné, filets, bonnets phrygiens et fleurs de lys dorés, tranches supérieures dorées, XI-478 et 465 pp., index. Library of English Classics. Ouvrage de référence de l'historien britannique Thomas Carlyle (1795-1881) qui parut en 1837 juste avant l'accession au trône de la reine Victoria et qui eut une si grande influence sur la représentation de la Révolution française que se fit le monde anglo-saxon au XIXe siècle. Carlyle fait commencer la Révolution française en 1774 à la mort de Louis XV et la termine par la répression par Bonaparte de l'insurrection de Vendémiaire (octobre 1795). La Révolution et le sansculottisme dans son esprit destructeur sont le juste aboutissement d'un mauvais gouvernement et d'une décomposition sociale. Carlyle n'écrit pas la chronique de la Révolution, il en donne la signification et la portée, dans toute sa complexité, destructrice et épique, là où Burke dans ses "Reflections on the Revolution in France" la condamnait entièrement. Exemplaire dans une très bonne condition.(ThB41) PHOTOS NUMERIQUES DISPONIBLES PAR EMAIL SUR SIMPLE DEMANDE-DIGITAL PHOTOGRAPS MAY BE AVAILABLE ON REQUEST

rif. 18631Both items from 6 Farriano Cottages Leighton Road NW. London. 23 January and 1 February 1865. Both letters are 3pp. 12mo and both bifoliums. In good condition on lightly aged paper. An interesting couple of letters with Larkin advising the engraver on how to extract payment from the publishers while stressing in both letters that he does not wish his own name mentioned. The first letter begins: 'The Printer has had the Woodcut and printed it so you can go ahead! If I were you I think I should write something to this effect - not returning the account they can ask for it if they want it.' He gives the text of his proposed letter which explains that the engraver was 'commission to make the Woodcut of Frederick the Great's Autograph by Mr Carlyle who said I was to send it to you with the account and that you would settle for it.' The letter states that the engraving is the eighth 'for the work by Mr Carlyle's order' and the first to be 'disputed' by the publishers and threatens to approach Carlyle directly. Following the text of the letter Larkin tells the engraver that it will be 'quite enough' and that it will result in the publishers asking him 'as a favour to accept the money!' He concludes with the warning: 'Recollect they might show your letter to Mr Carlyle and if you send too much it mightn't be pleasant!' The second letter states that since the account remains unpaid the engraver should 'write a note to Mr Carlyle informing him how often you have applied for payment and enclosing the note from Mr Chapman which you showed me. And ask him to kindly tell you what to do.' Larkin is keen that Carlyle should not 'think if he knew you had consulted me that I might look after Mr Chapman for him: which I don't altogether care to do'. He gives more advive before apologising for not visiting him having 'damaged my knee'. Both items from 6 Farriano Cottages, Leighton Road, NW. [ London. ] 23 January and 1 February 1865. unknown
