The Authoress'. ** Matthew Piers Watt Boulton 1820 - 1894, the philosopher, scientist and inventor, came from a distinguished engineering family whose enormous success had led to the purchase of the outstanding estate of Great Tew Park in the Cotswolds. Boulton's father and grandfather, pioneering figures in the Industrial Revolution, had been in partnership with James Watt, the inventor of the steam engine. The present Boulton (named after James Watt) was himself notable for his work on engines and on early aeronautics, particularly his invention of the aileron, a key feature of all flying machines from pioneering times to today. He was also a classicist and a member of the Metaphysical Society. He wrote many scientific and aeronautical papers, as well as verse translations of Homer 1875, Virgil 1877, and the German poet Heine 1880. Perhaps it is this latter volume to which Mme de Sanctis refers in her inscription. The Boultons' library at Great Tew was sold at auction in 1987. **** To order this book, please click the link Ask Bookseller A Question.

Reynard the Fox, 'hero of several medieval European cycles of versified animal tales that satirize contemporary human society. Though Reynard is sly, amoral, cowardly, and self- seeking, he is still a sympathetic hero whose cunning is a necessity for survival. He symbolizes the triumph of craft over brute strength, usually personified by Isengrim, the greedy and dull-witted wolf.The main literary tradition of Reynard the Fox descends from the extant French 'branches' of the Roman de Renart (about 30 in number, nearly 40,000 lines of verse). The facetious portrayal of rustic life, the camel as a papal legate speaking broken French, the animals riding on horses and recounting elaborate dreams all suggest the atmosphere of 13th-century France' (Merriam-Webster's Encyclopedia of Literature).

Woodcut title vignette, 43 woodcut illustrations (some repeated). Title page in red and black. [8], 300 leaves. Small 4to (7-3/4 x 5-7/8 inches). The first of two Frankfurt printings by David Zöpfel that year, using the same woodcuts. The text is descended from the Low German version Reynke de Vos, first printed at Lübeck in 1498. Among the most widely adapted of the beast fables, the tales of Reynard the Fox originated in the 12th and 13th centuries, with early versions in French, Dutch, Latin, and German being notable. One of the most important secular literary traditions of the Middle Ages, Reynard the Fox is at its essence biting satire and parody. The character of Reynard, an anthropomorphic fox and trickster, has since become almost an archetype in the literatures of many languages. "The supreme 'anti-hero' of medieval fiction" (Cambridge Guide to Children's Books in English). This copy from the renowned library of the eminent British architect and book collector Sir William Tite (1798-1873), whose sale at Sotheby's in May-June 1874 took sixteen days, certainly one of the greatest collections of the time. Late nineteenth century brown crushed morocco gilt, by Frances Bedford, marbled endpapers, gilt edges. Provenance: William Title (inscription dated 1856 on front free endpaper); C. S. Ascherson (bookplate and inscription to); Edward Ascherson (bookplate) Woodcut title vignette, 43 woodcut illustrations (some repeated). Title page in red and black. [8], 300 leaves. Small 4to (7-3/4 x 5-7/8 inches).
