Descripción

F. Rääf to front pastedown. First edition of the first bibliography of Swedish educational books, and still regarded as a standard work. Included are books on didactics, language books for various languages, books for reading and writing practice, followed by general educational titles covering history, geography, natural sciences, religion and cultural history. A final section covers encyclopaedias. In all more than 1500 titles are described with full bibliographical details. Petzholdt praises the quality of the bibliographical description, and comments on the fact that many of the titles listed are accompanied by references and reviews. Lorenzo Hammarsköld (1785-1827) had been a friend of the Rääf family since his early teens, and collaborated with the scientist and writer L. F. Rääf, to produce the first translation of Victor Hugo into Swedish. Almquist 1181; Petzholdt, p. 604; rare, OCLC lists just the copy at the National Library of Sweden. N° de ref. del artículo 3198
