1988Best.-Nr. 25739Stroud: Catalpa Press 1988. stiff paper wrappers. Lear Edward. oblong 8vo. stiff paper wrappers. xii 119 pages. With introductory remarks by Vivien Noakes. A fascinating census of the limericks in Edward Lear's Book of Nonsensewhich was first published in 1846 as two separate volumes with seventy-three limericks. A "new" i.e. second edition came out in 1855 and a third edition with forty-three additional verses was published in 1861. This third edition provides the first full text and also identifies Lear as the author for the first time. It is often considered the first "trade" version as it was published by Routledge Warne & Routledge and consequently received broader distribution and readership. Justin Schiller has cross-referenced the 116 limericks in the third edition with eight manuscripts for this book which are now preserved in various rare book collections and compared them to the printed texts of the 1846 1855 and 1861 editions. This volume also contains a census of known copies of the genuine first edition. Catalpa Press unknown books
