Hardcover. Condition: Good. No jacket. Illustrations by Alexander King. Some pages uncut. Original black cloth binding with gilt lettering on front board and spine. Rear hinge is slightly loose. 2500 copies of this edition were printed; this copy lacks a copy number. Pages are clean without marginalia. The pages have a deckled edge, and at the bottom, some cut pages have a rougher edge. There are a number of uncut pages in this volume. This is a translation of the first-century Latin work of fiction by Titus (Gaius) Petronius, an example of Menippean satire. The work contains a mixture of prose and verse, with erotic and decadent themes, as it follws the narrator Encolpius and his slave and lover Giton. This translation is attributed to Oscar Wilde, and contains "the fragments," notes on missing components of the novel, or references supporting the translation. An introduction written by Wilde follows. Hardcover. Condition: good. 408 pages, octavo. Seller Inventory # 1666552

Plates are clean, bright, and unfoxed though toned. Bright, clean dust jacket (unclipped) with small chips at its corners. Introduced, Corrected and Edited by Oscar Wilde, who was an admirer of Gaius Petronius' Arbiter's, Satyricon. [The author MAY have been Titus Petronius Niger {c. AD 27 - 66, whose suicide was ordered by Nero.] This now somewhat fragmentary work was a colloquial Latin picaresque "novel" with homoerotic byplay involving Encolpius, an "unusually repulsive and degenerate Hero Narrator" who has a difficult time keeping Giton, his teenage boy-lover and other excitements such as the banquet of Trimalchio. Allen Lewis (1873 - 1957) from Mobile, Alabama, later studied with Jean-Léon Gerome at the Ecole des Beaus Arts in Paris. In 1900, his work, along with Whistler and Pennell, was accepted in the Paris Salon. After returning to New York in 1902, he became a member of Alfred Steiglitz's circle and was widely appreciated for his engravings and color woodcuts. American Reissue of the 1927 British limited edition in one volume with new illustrations. Seller Inventory # 8091
