Nigel's Dearest Wis It was the last novel Disraeli published before his death. Endymion is a romance although Disraeli took the unusual step of setting it between 1819 and 1859. This meant that the hero of the novel-Endymion Ferrars-had to be a Whig rather than a Tory. The time period that Disraeli chose was dominated by the Whig party; there would have been little opportunity for a young rising Tory. Given that it seems likely that Disraeli chose the time period so he could dwell for a final time in the world in which he grew up and began his ascent. William Pitt Ferrars a rising Tory politician with cabinet ambitions is disappointed of his hopes by the fall of the Tory ministry of the Duke of Wellington in 1832 and his party's overwhelming defeat in that year's parliamentary election. He retires from his opulent house in Hill Street London to the modest country estate of Hurstley; his failure to reenter the government in Sir Robert Peel's brief ministry in 1835 and his inability to secure a parliamentary seat in the subsequent elections leads his wife to die of sorrow and disillusionment and ultimately to his own suicide.He leaves behind him two adolescent children Endymion and Myra who are determined to redeem their father's legacy. The title character's name is a reference to the shepherd Endymion of Greek mythology familiar in 19th-century culture as the title of an 1818 John Keats poem among other references. ; Endymion is Disraeli in his youth. Zenobia a queen of fashion is based on his Lady Blessington with a combination of some other great lady. She was Benjamin Disraeli's first great patroness. The novel is full of political lessons and conceits and its pictures of aristocratic circles with the semi-ministerial management of English affairs by the queens of fashionable society on behalf of their Endymions not only expose the romance of Disraeli's own life but also reveal the things behind the scenes which perhaps none so well could have done as this Jewish ex-premier of England in the literary winding up of his strange eventful life. It is this inner view of Disraeli's novel which gives its real significance.;--Wikipedia ; Sir Edmund William Gosse was an English poet author and critic. He was strictly brought up in a small Protestant sect the Plymouth Brethren but broke away sharply from that faith. His account of his childhood in the book Father and Son has been described as the first psychological biography. His friendship with the sculptor Hamo Thornycroft inspired a successful career as a historian of late-Victorian sculpture. His translations of Henrik Ibsen helped to promote that playwright in England and he encouraged the careers of Sarojini Naidu Toru Dutt W. B. Yeats and James Joyce. He also lectured in English literature at Cambridge University. FINE <br/> <br/> The Cambridge Society, New York, [M. Walter Dunne], [1905] hardcover

18826150<p><strong>Very rare edition.</strong></p><p><strong>Benjamin Disraeli</strong> 1804-1881 hailed as one of the founders of the political novel in world literature and often regarded as '<em>the creator of the PR novel or the novel of political technologies'</em> served as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom twice. However he remained obscure regarding in Russia until the 1840s. The first Russian review of Disraeli's works specifically the novels '<em>Coningsby</em>' and '<em>Sybil'</em> appeared in the journal '<em>Otechestvennye Zapiski</em>' in 1845. In 1859 the first Russian translation of his work emerged - an anonymous abridged version of the romance novel '<em>Henrietta Temple</em>' 1837 was published in the journal '<em>Biblioteka dlia Chteniia'</em>.<br />Over time Disraeli began to be perceived by Russian readers and critics not merely as a writer but as a political figure with his works seen as autobiographical material providing insight into the '<em>Disraeli phenomenon'</em>.<br />At the Congress of Berlin in 1878 Disraeli garnered significant acclaim for his role in curbing Russia's influence in the Balkans following the Russo-Turkish War. This event sparked greater interest in Disraeli among Russian critics and readers. In the same year a critical article in '<em>Otechestvennie Zapiski</em>' characterized Disraeli as '<em>a buffoon sometimes very awkward and untimely who continually changes his beliefs depending on the circumstances'</em> also noting his '<em>passionate and systematic antagonism towards Russia'</em>.<br />Furthermore Disraeli's last completed novel '<em>Endymion</em>' 1880 was translated shortly after its original publication. In 1881 five different translations were issued simultaneously: four in Saint Petersburg and one in Moscow. All of these translations were anonymous with one being a shorter version.<br />This particular translation was published as a part of the notable series '<em>Sobranie perevodnykh romanov povestei I rasskazov</em>' '<em>Collected Foreign Novels Novellas and Stories Translated into Russian</em>' by the esteemed female publisher Elizaveta Akhmatova. Unlike other translations this one was republished once in 1882.</p><p>We couldn't trace any copy of this edition in OCLC or in Russian main libraries.</p> E.N. Akhmatova hardcover
