1862ref. ST19567-034London: Bell and Daldy 1862. 229 x 152 mm. 9 x 6". Five volumes. Edited by John Payne Collier. VERY ATTRACTIVE DEEP BLUE PEBBLE-GRAIN MOROCCO HANDSOMELY GILT covers with frames of one dogtooth and three plain rules raised bands spines in antique-style compartments with delicate scrolling cornerpieces and intricate central fleuron surrounded by small tools densely gilt floral turn-ins marbled endpapers all edges gilt. With frontispiece portrait of Spenser in volume I. Front pastedown with armorial bookplate of Herbert Lionel Bashford M. A. Dibon Lodge Godalming. See: Day "History of English Literature to 1660" pp. 187-89. Spines just a shade darker than covers a couple covers with a slightly blotchy appearance due to leather preservative but quite an attractive set in generally fine condition the text fresh and bright and the leather lustrous. The first modern English poet to achieve major stature Spenser ca. 1552-99 in Day's words demonstrated "with his fluency in many meters and stanzaic forms . . . that English was at least the equal to any other language as a vehicle of great poetry." While his poems particularly "The Faerie Queene" look backward as the culmination of the allegorical verse tradition of the Pearl Poet Langland and Chaucer he has influenced with "his fertile imagination and especially his sensuous imagery and melodic language" nearly every important English poet who followed him. Day DNB praises Collier's "Spenser" first published in 1862 as "an excellent edition with the completest life of the poet that had as yet appeared." Despite his great knowledge and love of early English authors Collier 1789-1883 suffered a certain diminished respect because of his propensity for textual fabrication. This was true particularly in the case of the notorious "Perkins folio" supposedly containing an early copy of Shakespeare's works with superior variant readings which turned out to be forged. Britannica comments that these "fabrications . . . may charitably . . . be attributed to literary monomania but . . . it is difficult to speak with patience of them so completely did they for a long time bewilder the chronology of Shakespeare's writings." Apart from its important content this set is quite lovely on the shelf. The bindings are unsigned but they have the feel and appearance of work done by James Hayday 1796-1872 one of the most prominent and productive English binders of the 19th century. The present set is typical of Hayday's decorative work for a large market using high quality leather and being liberal with gilt embellishment. Bell and Daldy unknown

Contemporary full diced russia gilt ruled with fully gilt spines lettered direct several joints skilfully renewed; booksellers ticket of Calignant Paris. A handsome example of the best and most beautiful - according to Brunet - edition of Spensers works. Todds Poetical Works of John Milton 1801 became the standard edition of Milton for some decades. Here Todd assembled critical material by John Hughes Joseph Spence Thomas Wharton and John Upton and contributed his own biography of Spenser as well as additional notes. Writing in the Edinburgh Review vol 13 1806 Sir Walter Scott was less than complimentary. He described Todds style as of a dry sober and sleepy cast and was critical of his decision to reprint the notes of earlier commentators in full at the foot of each page rather than extracting their spirit and essence himself especially where they contradict one another five to one would be odds even against Culley or the Game Chicken and Spenser stood in danger of being overwhelmed but Scott did allow that the text is correctly and judiciously edited. One can sympathise with Scotts rejection of variorum editions but in the present work Todd had compiled a comprehensive survey of Spenserian scholarship as it existed two hundred years after the poets death.

Dent commissioned Beardsley and Fairfax-Muckley to illustrate his deluxe arts and crafts publications in an effort to emulate the success of the Kelmscott Press. An additional limitation of 100 copies on handmade paper was also issued. 2 vols quarto.
