Descripción del artículo del vendedor

2002-2004. Complete four volume set: pp. xxxii,252; xxvii,323; xxix,337; xxix,433. Dust jacket fine with slight rubbing to edges only, vol. 4 slightly scuffed to rear panel. Hardback bindings fine; contents clean and tight, unmarked. A fine set in dustwrappers. "Sir Peter le Page Renouf (1822-97), a Guernseyman, was described by Lord Acton as 'the most learned Englishman I know'. The remarkable collection of his surviving letters, published in four volumes by University College Dublin Press between 2002 and 2004, covers Renouf's varied career from his days as a student in Oxford, his time as a lecturer in the 1850s at the new Catholic University in Dublin until after his retirement as Keeper of Egyptian and Assyrian Antiquities at the British Museum. In 1864, Acton helps to obtain a post for Renouf in England as Inspector of Schools. Although this work involved the most tedious administrative duties, Renouf still managed to keep up his Egyptological studies. In 1875, he and his wife travelled to Syria, Palestine and Egypt. His life changed dramatically in 1886 when he was appointed Keeper of Egyptian and Assyrian Antiquities at the British Museum, a post he held until his retirement in 1891. He spent the last years of his life on a translation of the Book of the Dead." Size: Large 8vo.…
