A very nice copy of the famous Warton Theocritus reputed to be one of the most elegant editions ever published by Oxford University’s Clarendon Press. Thomas Warton 1728-1790 Oxford Professor of Poetry and later Poet Laureate wrote satirical verse but also maintained a talent for serious scholarship earning considerable respect for his efforts in this edition: ‘a very splendid edition. every lover of Greek literature is under great obligations to the very learned and ingenious Mr. Warton for this magnificant edition of Theocritus’ Harwood quot. in Dibdin. There are also contributions from the brilliant but difficult scholar Jonathan Toup 1713-1785. Together here with Warton’s edition is an appendix separately published two years later and hence rarely found though explicitly intended to accompany the main text. This copy is elegantly bound by Johann Bohn 1757-1843 German emigre bookbinder likely c. 1810 - Bohn established himself on Frith Street in 1795 and by the late 1810s had shifted focus to bookselling and the binding was plausibly done for Thomas Gaisford 1779-1855 who reached the position of Regius Professor of Greek at Oxford in 1811. Gaisford’s bookplate is absent but the copy was among books recently dispersed by a branch of descendants and Theocritus was an author Gaisford edited for his Poetae Minores Graeci 1814-1820.

Loosely inserted is the Clover Hill Prospectus for The Story of Cupid and Psyche and a manuscript letter from Douglas Cleverdon to the previous owner of this copy of the Theocritus. Cleverdon established Clover Hill Editions with Will Carter. Before this he was a bookseller in Bristol and a producer for the BBC where he made programmes with Stevie Smith Ted Hughes Sylvia Plath and most famously Dylan Thomas producing the premier of Under Milk Wood. A beautiful copy of this 1971 reissue of the 1588 edition of Sixe Idillia printed in Oxford. Anthony Gross 1905-1984 was a painter and printmaker. He is "best known for his etchings which are characterised by dense decorative line and texture often achieved by the use of unconventional printmaking tools". V&A website. This style is perfectly suited to the heated and claustrophobic Arcadian world of Theocritus's Idylls with its tortured lovers wild animals and wilder monsters.

Parallel text in Greek and French on facing pages. Front flyleaf with engraved armorial bookplate. Carteret IV 377. ◆A couple of tiny dark spots to front board title page with three small spots of foxing but A VERY FINE COPY clean and fresh internally with generous margins the watercolor on bright stock and the binding unworn. From one of the leading publishers of luxury editions during what Ray calls "the golden age of bibliophiles" this is an excerpt from the "Idylls" of Theocritus in a binding from an esteemed Parisian workshop. Marcellin Lortic 1852-1928 was trained by his father Pierre 1822-92 one of the great binders of 19th century Paris; the firm was known for their superb interpretations of traditional styles. Flety notes that unlike his father Lortic fils handled all aspects of a binding himself as designer binder and gilder. He was an eccentric workaholic living alone in his workshop and devoting his life to his craft. According to Flety "his bindings appeared in numerous libraries of great collectors of his time" who showed their satisfaction and appreciation with persistent loyalty. Protective of his reputation--and also loathe to work with others--he refused to hire an apprentice/successor choosing instead to sell his equipment and tools when he was no longer able to work. Our text follows in the tradition of an ancient Greek poetic form comprising a conversation between two lovers often unsurprisingly with amorous content--in the present case seduction leading to marriage. The style was adopted by and enjoyed a vogue among Symbolist poets like Paul Verlaine in the 19th century. The illustrations--alive with nymphs fauns and other mythological creatures--are the work of Georges Bellenger 1847-1918. He exhibited landscapes and still life paintings in the Paris Salon but was best known for his lithographs. He received a commendation from the Société des Artistes Français in 1889.

J.-C) pour le marchand, éditeur et passionné de gravure, Ambroise Vollard. Le récit, consacré à la naissance de l’univers et à l’origine des dieux, est considéré comme l’un des grands textes de la mythologie grecque.

Comme les figures mythologiques et les natures mortes de l’époque, ces œuvres possèdent un style curvilinéaire et propice à la métamorphose.
