Descripción del artículo del vendedor

A delightful volume comprising five satirical poems with Cruikshank's illustrations. Including the first separate edition of Coleridge and Southey's 'Devil's Walk'. Bound together are five satirical and comical poems from the likes Samuel Taylor Coleridge and Robert Southey (under the pseudonym Professor Porson), William Thomas Moncrieff, H. W. Montagu, and John Taylor. All but Taylor's are first editions. Illustrated by eminent British caricaturist George Crukshank, perhaps best known for his internationally acclaimed book illustrations for Charles Dickens. A fascinating satirisation of the social and political standings of the early Victorian period. In contemporary full vellum, with gilt to the spine and marbled endpapers. Rubbed morocco spine label. Offering the following works: The Devil's Walk (Samuel Taylor Coleridge and Robert Southey)- The second issue, with the omission of pp. 21-22 rectified [Wise p. 137]. Frontispiece and five plates. First published under the titleThe Devil's Thoughts, this poem describes the Devil amusing himself with the sight of the various sins of mankind. It was first published in 1799 by Coleridge and expanded by Southey in 1827. The poem was imitated by many over the years, notably by Shelley (The Devil's Walk, 1812) and Byron (The Devil's Drive, 1813). Minor poet H. W. Montagu provides an introduction and notes. Collated, complete. The Real Devil's Walk (Samuel Taylor Coleridge and Robert Southey) - Frontispiece, six plates and numerous vignettes. A continuation of the previous, this time alluding to the use of a pseudonym with "Not by Professor Porson" to the title page. Collated, complete. The March of Intellect (W. T. Moncrieff) - A very scarce first edition, commenting on the social disruption and political unrest of England at the time, partly a result of mechanization. Frontispiece and six plates. Collated, complete. Monsieur Mallet: or, My Daughter's Letter. A Random Record (H. W. Montagu) - Frontispiece and five plates. Collated, complete. Monsieur Tonson (John Taylor) - The second edition. First published in 1808, this poem narrates a Mr Tom King continuously knocking on the door of a Frenchman to ask if a Mr Thompson lives there, to which the Frenchman replies that "No 'Monsieur Tonson'" lives there. Frontispiece and six plates. Collated, complete. Twenty-five pages of publisher's advertisements to the rear. In contemporary full vellum, with gilt to the spine. Externally, morocco spine label is significantly rubbed, with yellowing and handling marks to the vellum. Boards slightly sprung. Internally, generally firmly bound, with plate facing p. 17 to 'Monsieur Mallet' detached but present, and front free endpaper working loose slightly. Pages are bright and clean, with only the odd spot to the blanks. Rear free endpaper is clipped to the lower corner. Good.…
