No Binding. Condición: Fine. Each a single sheet, 8vo, printed in black and green at the Tragara Press. The books are: Jonathan Allison, editor, Bound for the 1890s: essays on writing and publishing in honor of James G. Nelson ("Based on original research using primary sources and full of insights and discoveries, these reinterpretations focus on Oscar Wilde, Aubrey Beardsley, W.B. Yeats, John Lane, and other figures who shaped fin-de-siècle literature, book illustration, and aesthetic publishing . . . The roster of distinguished contributors includes Jonathan Allison, Philip K. Cohen, Nicholas Frankel, Steven Halliwell, Linda K. Hughes, Mark Samuels Lasner, Margaret D. Stetz, and Linda Gertner Zatlin"); Sharon W. Propas, Victorian Studies: a research guide ("The first edition of this guide . . . was published in 1992, just as electronic resources were becoming major tools for scholars. Since then, the internet has changed the way in which research materials, especially indexes and other finding guides, are presented and used"); Arthur L. Schwarz, Dear Mr. Cockerell, Dear Mr. Peirce: an annotated description of the correspondence of Sydney C. Cockerell and Harold Peirce in The Grolier Club Archive ("The letters of two prominent book collectors, Sydney Carlyle Cockerell in London and Cambridge and Harold Peirce an ocean away in Philadelphia, were exchanged over a thirty-four year period (1897-1931) and brimmed over with bookish discussion"); Richard Whittington-Egan, Stephen Phillips: a biography ("Virtually forgotten today, Stephen Phillips was a poet and playwright whose verse dramas were considered the equal of Shakespeare s"). The 1890s interests of Rivendale's list coincided with those of Alan Anderson. Rivendale's publisher, Steven Halliwell, was author of Fifty Years of Hand-Printing, the Tragara Press bibliography of 2005. Anderson's prospectuses do Halliwell proud.

Cloth, 8vo, 24 cm, 335 pp, ills, map, [4] pp publisher's catalogue at end. From the publisher's description: "Cyril Arthur Edward Ranger Gull [1875-1923] has proved to be an emblematic 'Nineties decadent whose early works were published anonymously and banned from the circulating libraries. Compton Mackenzie tells us that those early novels created a scandal that compared with the four letter school' of the 1960s. In 1906 his books were removed from the shelves at Oxford University. He was not above pulling the odd scam. The publisher Grant Richards decided he was an odd, attractive and rather unprincipled little chap.' He was an alcoholic and a gambler who placed himself perilously close to Oscar Wilde. Two companies in which he was involved went into liquidation. Through his friendships he became embroiled in the sub rosa world of late Victorian pornography. In 1899 he conspired to give refuge to the guilty party in the Dreyfus Affaire that strained diplomatic relations between France and Germany. In 1902 he left London in a cloud and created a new identity after being caught misbehaving himself on the beach at Portscatho. Legend has it that in walking the moors of West Cornwall, he was never far from liquid refreshment. In apparent contradiction, he was an award winning crack-shot and Vice-President of the Wildfowlers' Association of Great Britain and Ireland. He made a fortune as a writer and, as a Mine Adventurer, lost the lot. Aside from his own mark on the reading public of the first quarter of the Twentieth Century, Gull merits attention for the light he sheds on those whose lives he impinged upon. Biographers of major figures of the time have failed to pick up on the singular positions occupied by such bit-part players and their roles in popular Edwardian fiction. John Betjeman's reflected verdict was that he was a real bad egg' and while envying his sales figures, D. H. Lawrence decided succinctly that C. Ranger Gull was a scamp."

First UK edition, 2000. (First published by Penn State Press, 2000). Hardback. [i - vii], viii - ix, [x - xi], xii - xiv, [xv], xvi, 1 - 430 plus one page of publisher's ads at end. Dust jacket in a protective sleeve. This book chronicles the experiences of Leonard Smithers (1861 - 1907), a key figure in the literary culture of late Victorian England. In his day he was known primarily for publishing books of upscale erotica. He became the publisher of choice for the Decadents, including most notably Oscar Wilde and Aubrey Beardsley. While a young solicitor in his native Sheffield, Smithers established a correspondence with the famed explorer and translator of exotic texts Captain Sir Richard Burton. Smithers collaborated with Burton in the publication of two Latin texts, the "Priapeia" and the "Carmina of Catullus", both of an erotic cast. After Burton's death in 1890, Smithers continued a significant involvement with his work, serving as an advisor to Lady Burton. During this time Smithers formed a partnership with Harry Sidney Nichols, and together they produced a series of clandestine books under the imprint of the Erotika Biblion Society. The crowning achievement of the partnership (which ended in 1894) was the publication of several splendid editions of "The Thousand Nights and a Night" in 1894 - 95. the years between 1895 and 1900 were Smithers's glory years. During this time he was the centre of young avant-garde writers and artists. After Wilde's imprisonment, it was Smithers who came to the rescue of the dispossessed Decadents, offering them both friendship and financial support. As a result of his championing the Decadents, Smithers published a number of books illustrated by Beardsley; Wilde's "The Ballad of Reading Gaol" and the plays "The Importance of Being Earnest" and "An Ideal Husband"; a magazine known as the "Savoy"; and books of verse by Ernest Dowson and Arthus Symons that have proved to be the finest expression of the Decadent Movement. Throughout his career, Smithers sought to produce attractive, well-made books that were tastefully designed and printed. This book provides expansive and expert insight into the prizes and pitfalls of an English publisher of the decadent Nineties. Black & white illustrations. Book in fine condition with little sign of use. Dust jacket fine and unclipped in a removable protective sleeve. Book.
