Samuel Richardson 1689 - 1761 was an English writer and printer known for his epistolary novels. He printed almost 500 works including journals and magazines working periodically with the London bookseller Andrew Millar. Richardson had been apprenticed to a printer whose daughter he eventually married. He lost her along with five sons but remarried and had four daughters who reached adulthood but had no male heirs to continue the print shop. As it ran down he wrote his first novel at the age of 51 and joined the admired authors of his day. via Wikipedia Much like the Bertrams in Mansfield Park Jane Austen and her siblings were fond of putting on "theatricals" at home for their friends and neighbors. In 1793 at the age of eighteen Jane Austen began writing and shortly afterwards abandoned a dramatic adaptation of this work entitled "Sir Charles Grandison or the happy Man a comedy in 6 acts." She completed it in 1800. Extract copied into Volume 1: "Of all representations of madness says dr. Joseph Warton that of Clementina's is most deeply interesting. I know not whether even the madness of Lear is wrought up and expressed by so many little strokes of nature & passion - it is absolute pedantry to prefer and compare the madness of Orestes in Euripides to this of Clementina" Richardson has founded the excellence of his good characters entirely upon a Christian basis. He has exemplified the beautiful ideal of human nature -- the character of Clementina Sir Charles Grandison and Clarissa Harlowe are the most virtuous amiable accomplish'd and noble that can well be imagined -- they are supported with strict propriety & elevated by uncommon dignity -- and charm the reader while they command his admiration -- they show that mankind are truly happy only in proportion as they listen to the dictates of conscience and follow the path of duty --- where could Richardson a bookseller and a printer immersed in the occupation of his shop and his press acquire such a correct acquaintance with high life and refined society such exalted sentiments of religion honor love freindship and philanthropy as he has displayed in his works -- Where did he acquire such a command over our feelings such a power "to open the sacred source of sympathetic tears" The best answer to these questions is -- that he deriv'd those treasures from the rich resources of his own mind from the study of the bible and a quick insight into human nature & character. He has been justly styled "the great master of the human heart" -- "the Shakespeare of romance." -- Clarissa Harlowe -- & Sir Charles Grandison are long works because they are designed to develop the springs of human action and give a distinct view of the progressive various and complex movement of the human mind - Prolixity is made the pretext of the frivolous novel readers of the present age to neglect these invaluable works - alltho if they be weighed in the balance of literary justice they will be found to comprise as much if not more sterling excellence than half the novels that have been written since their publication." Transcribed from The Beauties of Christianity pp. 103-104 by Chateaubriand tr. 1813 Frederic Shoberl There is a dedication in the same hand as the extract _______ "from her dear mother" on the recto of the title facing page. The dedicatee's name has been scratched out. 1360300. Shelved Dupont Bookstore. John Donaldson hardcover books

GROVER Eulalie Osgood editor. Mother Goose. The Volland Edition. Arranged and Edited by Eulalie Osgood Grover. Illustrated by Frederick Richardson. Chicago: Published by P.F. Volland & Co. 1915. First Volland edition inscribed by Frederick Richardson to his Grandchildren. Large quarto 11 15/16 x 8 15/16 inches; 304 x 227 mm. 120 pp. With 108 full-page color illustrations by Frederick Richardson printed on coated stock in the rich and luminous palette characteristic of Volland productions. Original light blue cloth front cover with a large and elaborately die-cut pictorial onlay laid into a matching blind-stamped panel a distinctive feature of Volland's decorative bindings. Color pictorial endpapers. Apart from some light fading to the spine and edges and the most minor evidence of handling an unusually well-preserved and highly attractive example of a book seldom found in such pleasing condition. Provenance: Inscribed on the front free endpaper:"To / My dear Grandchildren / from / Grandpa Fred / Christmas 1915" and additionally signed below in full "Fred Richardson." A charming and highly personal presentation copy bringing the book directly into the illustrator's own family circle-an association of particular intimacy and rarity. A quintessential example of the Volland "Happy Children Books" aesthetic combining durability with exceptional visual appeal through high-quality color printing and imaginative design. Richardson's illustrations-softly modeled decorative and imbued with warmth-rank among the most appealing American interpretations of the Mother Goose tradition harmonizing perfectly with Grover's thoughtful arrangement of the classic nursery rhymes. Frederick Richardson 1862 - 15 January 1937 was an American illustrator of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries perhaps best remembered for his illustrations of Mother Goose and the works by L. Frank Baum. His first illustrated book was L. Frank Baum's Queen Zixi of Ix which was published serially in St. Nicholas Magazine in 1904 and 1905 and in book form 1905. Richardson also drew pictures for Baum's "A Kidnapped Santa Claus" which first appeared in The Delineator in December 1904. His artwork also appears in the California State Series "Third Reader". He followed that initial work with many other book-illustration projects including editions of the works of Hans Christian Andersen Aesop's Fables Mother Goose Pinocchio and East of the Sun and West of the Moon and two volumes in the series of Andrew Lang's Fairy Books. Richardson also did an abundant amount of work for the Chicago publisher P. F. Volland; in illustrating collections of tales by Georgene Faulkner he varied his usual artistic style imitating Japanese art for her Little Peachling and Other Tales of Old Japan 1928 and Indian art for her The White Elephant and Other Tales from Old India 1929.

Paméla;

réf. 01915Londres Paris: Chez Jean Osborne Didot 1742. Virtue Rewarded - and Fully Told" The First Complete French Edition of Richardson's Pamela A Superb Copy in Contemporary French Mottled Calf RICHARDSON Samuel. Paméla ou la vertu recompensée. Traduit de l'anglois. Londres Paris: Chez Jean Osborne Didot 1742. First complete edition first printing in French of Richardson's celebrated epistolary novel incorporating the continuation published in English as Parts III and IV in 1741. The translation traditionally attributed to the Abbé Prévost has also been attributed by modern scholarship to François-Alexandre Aubert de La Chesnaye des Bois. Four twelvemo volumes 6 7/16 x 3 3/4 inches; 165 x 94 mm. xxiii 1 271 1; 4 324; 4 298; 4 302 pp. Title-pages printed in red and black. Two leaves belonging at the end of Volume III misbound into the final gathering of Volume IV; the text is complete. Contemporary French mottled calf covers with blind-ruled borders. Spines with five gilt-tooled raised bands dividing six compartments each decorated with an unusual gilt floral tool of a lily with eight leaves and central annular dot enclosed within a double-fillet frame with foliate sprigs as corner-pieces. Maroon morocco spine labels lettered in gilt; volume labels decorated with gilt roseates with lateral floral volutes above and below the lettering. Original French marbled endpapers. All edges stained red. Original green silk bookmark ribbons. Small oval stain 1 3/4 x 1 1/4 inches to upper board of Volume IV otherwise an absolutely stunning set tight bright and clean inside and out. The first complete French edition of one of the foundational novels of eighteenth-century literature published only two years after Richardson's original English edition and almost immediately after the appearance of its continuation. Samuel Richardson's Pamela; or Virtue Rewarded first appeared in London in 1740. Written principally in the form of letters by its young heroine Pamela Andrews the novel recounts her determined resistance to the sexual advances of her employer Mr. B. and her eventual transformation from servant into wife. Richardson's epistolary technique allowing his characters seemingly to record their thoughts and experiences almost as events occur gave the narrative an extraordinary immediacy and proved enormously influential upon the development of the eighteenth-century novel. The success of Pamela was immediate and sensational. Editions followed rapidly together with imitations unauthorized continuations attacks and parodies - not least Henry Fielding's Shamela. Richardson himself continued Pamela's story in two further volumes published in 1741 and concerned with her married life and conduct in high society. The First Complete Pamela in French: The French publication history is particularly interesting. A translation containing the first two parts had appeared in 1741. It was published after the fifth English edition at precisely the time when Richardson was revising his text for the handsome English octavo edition. According to the translator's preface Richardson himself supplied a number of additions and corrections for incorporation into the French text. The present four-volume edition of 1742 is the first French edition to contain the complete work incorporating the continuation represented by Richardson's English Parts III and IV. The circumstances surrounding its appearance in France are equally intriguing. The edition was already being offered for sale by January 12 1742 when fifty copies were seized from the bookseller Guérin. It subsequently appears to have circulated with the tacit consent of the authorities and was offered at six livres in sheets. The "Londres: Chez Jean Osborne" imprint was false. Evidence for its actual production in Paris by Didot was discovered in an advertisement leaf preserved with an incomplete copy at the British Library listing a number of Didot publications for sale. The Translator: The identity of the French translator has long been the subject of bibliographical uncertainty. The translation was traditionally attributed to Antoine-François Prévost the celebrated author of Manon Lescaut. It has subsequently also been attributed to François-Alexandre Aubert de La Chesnaye des Bois 1699-1783 the prolific author compiler and former Capuchin friar. Modern cataloguing continues to associate both names with the translation. It is therefore preferable to acknowledge the competing attributions rather than assign the work categorically to either translator. What is certain is that the French Pamela became an important vehicle for Richardson's extraordinary reception on the Continent. The appearance of this complete translation in 1742 scarcely two years after the English first edition demonstrates both the speed with which Richardson's reputation crossed the Channel and the remarkable international demand for the novel. The present copy is especially desirable for its condition. Complete eighteenth-century sets of the edition are scarce and the survival of all four volumes in such handsome uniform contemporary French mottled calf retaining their original marbled endpapers red edges and green silk bookmark ribbons is particularly appealing. A superb copy of the first complete French edition of Richardson's masterpiece - an important document in the European dissemination of the English novel. Sale 15n p. 29; Rochedieu pp. 279-280.
