Four Volumes. Vols. I and II are 1854 first printings, vols. III and IV 1878 reprints; presenting as a uniform set. Handsomely bound by Riviere & Son in full polished calf. The boards double-ruled in gilt with corner devices; the spines with five raised bands, the compartments finely decorated in gilt, as are board edges and inner dentelles. Top edge gilt, endpapers marbled. Frontispiece engravings to each volume all with tissue-guards, Vol. IV with an additional frontispiece illustration of Goldsmith's memorial at Westminster Abbey. A fine set, the bindings square and firm, the contents clean and bright, without marks or spotting. Small bookseller's label to the lower edge of the front pastedown of Vol. I. There are a few surface marks to the boards, the upper portion of the front panel of Vol. IV is a little faded. A beautiful set. Peter Cunningham's 1854 edition of Goldsmith's Works was the first to take full account of the author's own corrections and attempt to present the texts as the author left them. In his preface, Cunningham discusses the merits and problems of earlier, less comprehensive, editions of Goldsmith's writings, notably those of 1801 (containing Thomas Percy's Life of Goldsmith) and Sir James Prior's 1837 edition. (Arthur Friedman, 'Goldsmith', The New Cambridge Bibliography of English Literature, [Cambridge: 1969], pp. 1191-1210).

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - A 'renegade Irish Catholic from the plains of Montana, upper lower class, a onetime scholar in Latin and in the English Renaissance,' J. V. Cunningham is known for formal verse that is clear and concise. A master of the epigram, Cunningham also wrote longer poems in what is often called the Plain Style. Though Cunningham's poetic output was small, he also left us a standout, wide-ranging body of essays. As James Matthew Wilson notes in his introduction, '[Cunningham's] work in verse and prose were two ways of speaking within a single way of life; they were complementary means toward a single end.' In these essays, Cunningham makes intelligible the 'Tradition and Poetic Structure' of our literary inheritance, taking us from the ancient poet 'Statius on Sleep' to the 'Woe or Wonder' of Shakespeare's pathos, 'Sorting Out,' along the way, the legend of Emily Dickinson. In 'Logic and Lyric,' he presents his soberly learned, but renegade argument against the 'incautious romantic's' absolute separation of poetry and philosophy, and with winsome wit he prompts us to consider: 'May a lyric be solely or predominantly the exposition of a syllogism and may the propositions of the lyric, one by one, be of the sort to be found in a logical syllogism ' The only book that contains the complete collection of Cunningham's known essays, this Wiseblood edition includes everything contained in Swallow Press's The Collected Essays of J. V. Cunningham, as well as six additional prose pieces, an expansive introduction from James Matthew Wilson, and an interview with Timothy Steele. 'To follow him on the path, however tentatively and with however many reservations, was to break bread with the modestly great; it was to learn the meaning and practice of poetry in an atmosphere of seriousness and near silence; it was to set out on pilgrimage in search of a more classical, more disciplined, more compelling and intelligent way of living, knowing, and writing in the world.' -from the Introduction by James Matthew Wilson.…
