Beschreibung

A smart copy of this first anthology of poetical works from William Collins. With memoirs of the author; and observations on his genius and writings by J. Langhorne. Second in influence only to Thomas Gray, William Collins was an important poet of the middle decades of the 18th century. His lyrical odes mark a turn away from the Augustan poetry of Alexander Pope's generation and towards the Romantic era which would soon follow. In contemporary calf binding with gilt design to the spine. Externally, lightly rubbed with some slight marks to the rear board. Front board is held by the cords only. Internally, firmly bound, bright and generally clean aside from the odd spot. Good. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers LTH8-E-21
