Pages are bright, plates crisp. MARY WOLLSTONECRAFT SHELLEY (1797-1851) has four attributed contributions to this literary annual. These include the first appearance of two short stories "by the Author of Frankenstein." (Lyles) Additionally, two sets of "stanzas" are anonymous but attributed to her by scholars (Sunstein , Bennet). The poems begin "To love in solitude and mystery." (p. 28) and "I must forget thy dark eyes' love-frought gaze." (p. 52). In Shelley's first short story, "The Brother and Sister. An Italian Story," (p. 105) a Sienese family of note comes under acute financial pressure from political rivals, leading to the banishment of a young man. His younger sister is left behind, made ward of the usurpers but events conspire to bring the two rival houses back into alignment in this romantic tale. Birmingham, England Artist ELIZA SHARPE (1796-1874) contributes the painting after which the title character "Flora" is seen in the woods with her maid contemplating her escape. Eliza Sharpe, the second of four artistic daughters of an engraver, William Sharpe, and his wife, worked a lengthy career in London as a portraitist and miniaturist, and was secty. of The "Old" Water-Colour Society after 1829. Her elder sister Louisa (1798-1843) also contributed to these pages. (DNB) The second Mary Shelley story, "The Invisible Girl" is a truly gothic tale with a ghostly element. A fishing boat flounders off the Welsh coast, but is guided to safety by a mysterious light coming from a seemingly abandoned stone tower. Ghosts of the past play a role in this gripping tale. Other notable artistic contributions were by J.M.W. Turner, who's view of "Erhenbreitstein" is shown. REF: W.

A RARE LONDON-PRINTED GERMAN ANNUAL, BY THE JEWISH PURVEYOR OF GERMAN BOOKS FOR THE BRITISH MUSEUM. Sm 4to. [20 x 13.5]. (40) pp, plus engr. frontispiece and 17 [of 18?] stipple-engraved, tissue-guarded portraits of women signed by various artists including "Miss L. Sharpe". Bound in original publisher's embossed brown cloth with gilt title on spine; all edges gilt. An immaculate, beautifully-preserved copy.Extremely rare example, beautifully-printed on thick paper, of this curious short-lived German-language annual brought to the press by Abraham Asher (1800-1853), a German emigré Jew resident in London with ties to the British Museum. The book consists of 17 striking, late-Romantic full-page steel engravings accompanied by poetic interludes drawn from celebrated German authors (Herder, Uhland, Immermann, and so on). The Anglo-German Louisa Sharpe (1798-1843) forged a successful career as miniature painter, and in 1834 moved from London to Dresden. The title, Ehret die Frauen ['Honor the Women'] seems to have been drawn from a 1796 Schiller poem of the same name. The audience for Asher's publication was undoubtedly Continental; it is interesting to note that Ehret die Frauen is advertised in all of the contemporary Germany literary journals often as 'in an embossed English binding' and seems to have attracted much acclaim for its typography and the quality of the illustrations. We can trace no copy of any edition or issue in UK libraries, while OCLC suggests that single volumes are held at Chicago (1837) and Northwestern University (1838) as well as in a number of German institutions. No institution seems to hold a complete run of the series (1835-1843?). * on Asher and the British Museum, cf Thomas Keiderling, "Ein jüdischer Buchhändler mit englischem Sortiment: Abraham Asher (1800-1853)" Berlinische Monatsschrift 8 (1996), pp. 55-60.…
