Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. From the Library of Poet-Anthropologist Nathaniel Tarn -exceptional double New Mexico Association pedigree. A compelling, high-association two-volume paperback collection sourced directly from the Santa Fe, New Mexico estate of the renowned writer and scholar Nathaniel Tarn (1928-2024). This pairing beautifully captures the tight-knit academic and poetry circles of the American Southwest during the 1980s critical theory boom. Volume 1: Romanticism and Contemporary Criticism, edited by Morris Eaves and Michael Fischer (Ithaca: Cornell University Press, 1986). First Edition. Warmly presentation inscribed by editor Morris Eaves on the half-title page: "To Lee - with best wishes / Morris / 4/86". As the book's contents originated from a famous 1983 lecture series at the University of New Mexico (where Eaves taught), the recipient is almost certainly Tarn's close lifelong friend, UNM professor, and official bibliographer, Lee Bartlett. The volume later migrated into Tarn's permanent working library; a major sub-section of the text (pp. 111-182) features thin, precise pencil marginalia, conceptual checkmarks, and brief annotations in Tarn's distinct personal hand. Covers show very mild shelf wear; binding remains tight and intact. Volume 2: The Romantic Ideology: A Critical Investigation, by Jerome J. McGann (Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 1983). First Edition, First Printing. This landmark New Historicist text features Tarn's crisp, circular blind-embossed provenance marker ("Ex Libris / Nathaniel Tarn") crisply stamped on the dedication page. A bright, exceptionally clean, square, and structurally unread copy. An elite collection connecting Eaves, Bartlett, and Tarn at an intersection of regional scholarship and modern critical theory history. Sold strictly as a unified two-volume set. Condition Grading: Romanticism and Contemporary Criticism: Very Good (VG). Softcover format. Firm binding, crisp corners, minor corner rubbing. Inscribed on half-title page. Interior text clean except for neat, non-structural scholar pencil markings on pp. 111-182. The Romantic Ideology: A Critical Investigation: Very Good (VG). Paperback format.
