Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Good. 1st Edition. Original first American trade edition of the Arthur Rackham illustrated Comus. The book is undated but circa about 1921. It is beautifully illustrated by Rackham with 24 color plates and a few other black and white illustrations. The book is overall in good condition with some minor signs of wear and age. The covers have some mild wear with some fraying and wrinkling to the cloth near the top of the spine. The binding is good and sound. The interior is generally nice and clean with just the occasional light bit of foxing & grubbiness. One of the tipped in plates has a creased corner. There is a very small tear near the gutter of one of the table of contents pages. Along with that there may be the very occasional page with some kind of other minor imperfection such as a creased page corner, minor interior crack, other tiny chip or tear, etc. Generally though, it's a good copy. The book measures approximately 10 1/8 inches by 7 1/2 inches and is 76 pages long.*********** This book will require additional shipping charges if being sent outside of the United States**********.

Here, in John Milton's masque Comus, the god is described as the son of Bacchus and Circe, a post-classical invention. The tale concerns two brothers and their sister, simply called "the Lady", lost in a journey through the woods. When the Lady becomes fatigued, the brothers wander off in search of sustenance. While alone, she encounters the debauched Comus, a character inspired by the god of revelry, disguised as a villager who claims he will lead her to her brothers. Deceived by his amiable countenance, the Lady follows him, only to be captured, brought to his pleasure palace and victimised by his necromancy.
