Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Hardcover. A presention copy from the author, with inscription to the top of the title page in Volume II: "H. Hole Esq. with the author's best regards." Thomas Roscoe (1791 - 1871) was an English translator and also a novelist who enjoyed studying the work by other European novelists. In the pref…ace he writes: "In the following series of national novels, connected with the secondary class of prose fiction so abounding in Spanish literature, it has been the humble endeavour of the translator, upon a similar plan with the Italian and the German specimens, to convey to the English reader some idea of its rise and progress, as well as of the peculiar manners, customs, modes of thinking at different periods, as exhibited in this form of composition." Includes Don Juan Manuel, Mendoza, Mateo Aleman, Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra, Matias de los Reyes, Don Christoval Lozano, Luis Veliz de Guavara, Isidro de Robles, Alonzo del Castillo Salorzano, Don Francisco de Quevedo Villegas, Doctor don Juan Perez de Montalvan, Antionio de Eslava, and Donna Maria de Zayas I Soto Mayor. Each author or tale is introduced by the compiler, Thomas Roscoe. All volumes are bound in matching three quarter tan leather over pink and brown marbled paper covered boards. Lacks title and volume labels. Gilt decoration to spine compartments. Wear to edges of boards, rubbing to boards and hinges. Large chip to leather on foot of spine of Volume II. A few chips to leather on boards. The front hinge of Volume I is starting. Marbled endpapers and full marbled edges. Occasional spots of foxing to interiors, but clean and bright overall. A worn, but still reasonably attractive set. Volume I: 360 pages; Volume II: 341 pages; Volume III: 321 pages. LIT/110922.

This collection of more than 1600 pages includes early legends (Reynard the Fox, Thyl Owlglass, the Merry Jester and Doctor Faustus [an abridgment of a 1599 work by G. R. Widman]), folk tales and popular traditions recorded by Otmar, Gottschalck, Eberhardt, Büsching, the Brothers Grimm and La Motte Fouqué, and stories by Musaeus, Schiller, Tieck, Langbein and Engel, including first appearances of English-language versions of weird tales by Tieck, as well as an obscure story by la Motte Fouqué. This collection preceded Carlyle's similar, and better known, four-volume anthology by a year." - Robert Eldridge. Barron (ed), Fantasy Literature 1-26.

Contact seller5-star sellerHardcover. Illustrations by J.R. Herbert. 4to. Original brown heavily blind-embossed cloth with large gilt devise and modern brown cloth tape spine. iv, 52pp. All edges gilt. Engraved title page, 9 full-page heavy stock engraved plates. Good plus. Bindings a tad edgeworn; some foxing and age toning to preliminary leaves; inner h…inges bear old but neat clean brown cloth tape reinforcement, thus tight. Nice first edition despite rather homespun spine of this slim gathering of steel engravings with accompanying text. Intriguing provenance: Laid in is a Typed Letter Signed from the great-great-granddaughter of Ulysses S. Grant, Carolyn Cartee (1947-2016): 1p, 5½" X 8", Encinitas, CA, 10 August 2015. Fine. Cartee spells out her connection to the Union general and U.S. president and records that "This copy of J.R. Herbert's Legends of Venice. came from the library of my grandmother" -- Nellie Grant Cronan (1881-1972), daughter of President Grant's youngest son Jesse R. Grant (1858-1934). Boldly signed at the close. Interestingly, when President and Mrs. Grant took their famous world tour after leaving the White House, they brought with them their son Jesse -- and in 1878 they visited Venice. There's no evidence whatsoever that this copy of "Legends of Venice" was a souvenir they picked up while there, mind you -- but there's no proof they DIDN'T buy it there or had it presented to them and a bookseller can fantasize, can't he?! Just idle, unanswerable speculation.

3pp., 16mo. Bifolium. On aged and foxed paper. He wishes to be informed 'whether the Forget Me Not" so long and ably edited by your Father will be published for the ensuing year - i.e. for 1848'. One of his daughters has 'written down Stories one or two of which have already appeared, and she would be very happy to avail herself… of an opportunity of writing something' for the annual, so he asks him to 'ascertain whether your Father would like to insert a short Nouvellette [sic] to the extent of 4 to 5 pages'. The subject is presumably Roscoe's daughter Jane Elizabeth St John (1829-1906) was generally known as Mrs. Horace Roscoe St John, author of 'Audubon the Naturalist' (1856), 'Englishwomen and the Age' (1860), a pamphlet on the condition of women, and two historical works, 'Masaniello of Naples' (1865) and 'The Court of Anna Carafa' (1872).
