1862réf. 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

1953réf. 10384The Heritage Press New York 1953. First edition 'thus'. HC VG. Beautiful pictoral cover in peach tan and green. Clean copy throughout. Introduction by John Hayward. Decorations drawn by John Austen. Illustrations engraved in wood by Agnes Miller Parker. The original work was first published in two parts in 1590 and 1596. The Heritage Press New York: In the year of the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II. Of note: "Edmund Spenser originally intended for The Faerie Queene to be a massive epic poem with twelve books each focused on a different moral virtue. However he only managed to complete and publish the first six books before his death in 1599." Therefore the presence of a "First book" through "The Seventh book" in this edition means this is the complete surviving work as written by Spenser. The overall plan for twelve books was never fulfilled. The Heritage Press hardcover
