First Edition
Soft cover. Condition: VG+. Dust Jacket Condition: Lacking Dustjacket. 1st Edition. The first edition of one of the classics of literary criticism. William Empson was among the two or three most important and influential literary critics and theorists of the twentieth century. He has long been celebrated as one of the most fertile (as well as one of the funniest) explorers of how meaning works in language, especially in poetry. The Structure of Complex Words (1951) was much his longest book and was intended as a major theoretical statement of his contribution to the subject. Since its publication, it has been constantly referred to, but usually from a respectful distance, since it can seem a forbidding and difficult work. 451pp. 23cm tall. iInterior of the book is bright and clean. Unmarked except for a neat signature in ink to the bottom margin of the ffep.Tight, square binding, sound hinges. The cloth shows no wear but is slightly dusty from lacking a dustjacket. Size: 23cm Tall. Book.
