Cloth. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First Edition. PRESENTATION COPY "With all good wishes" by the Author on ffe, 8vo (9" x 6"), brown cloth with black label & gilt title on spine, archival mylar-protected lettered dust jacket (unclipped), Index, xvii, [xviii] + 197, [198] pages. Harold Jantz (1907 - 1987) was Prof. of German at Northwestern, Johns Hopkins, and Duke Universities. He was greatly esteemed as one of the foremost Germanists of his generation, in part because of his publications on German Renaissance and Baroque literature and his Goethe-studies. His first major Goethe- book, Goethe's Faust as a Renaissance Man: Parallels and Prototypes, in 1951, presents a new reading based on the drama's Graeco-Roman and Renaissance backgrounds. Solid, clean copy of this thorough scholarly study. Very light uniform age-toning and occasional light foxing to paper, which retains excellent flexibility. Moderate wear and light fraying to edges of the unclippeed dust jacket. No previous ownership markings.

From signed limitation page: "Edition limited to one thousand copies for England and one thousand copies for the United States, of which this is No. '579' of the English issue. Rare edition from George G. Harrap. Large 8 1/4" x 10 5/8" design. Grey boards, cream vellum (leather) spine wrap, gilt spine titles, moderate shelf wear. Includes eight brilliantly miasmic color plates by Harry Clarke and intriguing nouveau illustration throughout in full and partial-page designs. Translated into English, in the original metric by John Anster. Many of the beautiful illustrations were considered erotic and so the book was originally banned in Ireland. The numerous head and tail pieces are rich with stylized figures and symbolic designs while Clarke's full-page images hypnotize us with their eerie and occult atmosphere and surreal creatures. The riveting tension between Goethe's concept of good and evil and the mythic proportions of his Mephistopheles, Faust, Margaret, and Martha, are all marvelously conjured in this outstanding volume.

Intriguing book design and craftsmanship. This limited edition includes a preface by Roger Ingpen, Goethe's dedication, prologues for the theatre and in heaven, an appendix including Percy Bysshe Shelley's translation of works by Goethe, and a special notes section. Near good signed example with near very good leaves and mesmerizing color plates and illustrations remaining attractive. A fine art edition of Goethe's great classic, the remarkable illustrations of which are by the clever Hungarian artist whose work attracted considerable attention both in England and on the continent. Mr. Pogany knows his Faust thoroughly, and realising the immense scope Goethe's drama offers to the imagination, he has painted a series of pictures of rare beauty and originality. The Faustian legend has captured the imagination for centuries. In Goethe's Faust, the reader discovers the most famous expression of this old German tale. The classic story of a man who makes the deal with the devil and pays with his soul. The influence of this theme on literature cannot be understated. The second part of Goethe's masterpiece opens with Faust struggling to recover from the death of his beloved Gretchen. The quick-witted demon Mephistopheles soon persuades him to look beyond his sorrow and enter the world of politics and power, but the great scholar is still eager for new sensations, and asks Mephistopheles to reveal Helen of Troy to him in a vision. Overwhelmed by her beauty, Faust demands she be brought back from the underworld - but even this fails to bring him contentment, and his appetite for knowledge remains unsated. Completed a few months before Goethe's death, this rich and allusive work weaves together a wealth of diverse philosophical ideas and influences, reworking the medieval myth of Dr. Faustus and speculating upon the search for truth in the Age of Enlightenment. Printed in Great Britain by A. C. Fowler, 6, Tenters Street, Moorfields, London, E. C. 210 pages. Insured post. Size: 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. Signed by Artist. Book.
