1737rif. 5825London: Ward and Chandler. C. Corbett E. Withers. 1737. Two volumes 12mo 150 × 90 mm 6 × 3½ inches. 12 238 2; 2 329 5 pages with an engraved frontispiece to each volume. Complete. Titles printed in red and black. The frontispieces show actors on stage and are unsigned. Historiated initials headpieces and ornamental section breaks. Bound in full leather the spines gilt in compartments with burgundy and black morocco labels and gilt dentelles. ESTC T134816. Second edition and the first under this title of an anonymous anthology of dramatic extracts. It was first published in 1724 as Thesaurus Dramaticus and is here "continued down to the present year". The extracts are arranged alphabetically by subject from Anger and Angels onwards each attributed to its play and author Dryden and Shakespeare prominent among them as a commonplace book for readers speakers and aspiring writers. A third edition enlarged to three volumes followed in 1756 and the work was reworked as The Beauties of the English Drama in 1777. Such compilations helped fix the canon of quotable English drama in the eighteenth century and they show which passages readers of the day most admired. Printed by William Bowyer whose ledgers record an edition of 1000 copies. Few appear to survive in commerce however: we can trace no other copy for sale and no auction record. Most institutional holdings recorded on WorldCat are digital surrogates rather than physical copies. Bindings slightly bumped with minor loss of gilt and some surface wear but sound. Internally clean with minimal foxing. An earlier armorial bookplate in each volume has been covered by the front pastedown and shows through faintly. A very good set. . Deux volumes in-12 150 × 90 mm 6 × 3½ pouces. 12 238 2 ; 2 329 5 pages avec un frontispice gravé dans chaque volume. Complet. Titres imprimés en rouge et noir. Les frontispices représentent des comédiens sur scène et ne sont pas signés. Lettres initiales historiées en-têtes et séparateurs de sections ornementaux. Reliure en cuir pleine peau dos doré en compartiments avec étiquettes en maroquin bordeaux et noir et dentelles dorées. ESTC T134816. Deuxième édition et première sous ce titre d'une anthologie anonyme d'extraits dramatiques. Publiée pour la première fois en 1724 sous le titre Thesaurus Dramaticus elle est ici « poursuivie jusqu'à l'année en cours ». Les extraits sont classés par ordre alphabétique de sujet à partir de « Anger » et « Angels » chacun étant attribué à sa pièce et à son auteur – Dryden et Shakespeare figurant en bonne place – à la manière d'un recueil de citations destiné aux lecteurs aux orateurs et aux écrivains en herbe. Une troisième édition étendue à trois volumes suivit en 1756 et l'ouvrage fut remanié sous le titre The Beauties of the English Drama en 1777. De telles compilations contribuèrent à établir le canon du théâtre anglais citable au XVIIIe siècle et elles révèlent les passages que les lecteurs de l'époque admiraient le plus. Imprimé par William Bowyer dont les registres font état d'un tirage de 1 000 exemplaires. Il semble toutefois qu'il n'en subsiste que très peu sur le marché : nous n'avons trouvé aucun autre exemplaire à vendre ni aucune mention dans les registres de ventes aux enchères. La plupart des fonds institutionnels répertoriés sur WorldCat sont des copies numériques plutôt que des exemplaires physiques. Reliures légèrement abîmées avec une légère perte de dorures et quelques traces d'usure en surface mais solides. Intérieur propre avec un minimum de rousseurs. Un ex-libris héraldique antérieur dans chaque volume a été recouvert par la page de garde avant et transparaît faiblement. Un très bel ensemble. Ward and Chandler... C. Corbett, E. Withers. hardcover
