Beschreibung

The first edition. Published in an edition of 750 copies at 12s 6d. Octavo (20 x 13cm). 'Hopkins's poetry with its religious faith, his experiments in versification, his "dark night of the soul", would have reduced all his Victorian contemporaries to immediate insignificance, like Rimbaud's in France, had they but known him.' - Connolly, The Modern Movement. pp. viii,124. With two portraits in photogravure & two double-page facsimile plates of MS. An excellent clean & fresh copy in the publisher's cloth-backed boards with printed label which is slighty rubbed, some slight wear to the spine cloth but a superior copy of a book normally found in poor state Vg. [Dunne A38; Hayward 335; CBEL IV 751; Connolly 33]. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 12101
