Now First Published from Original Papers. To Which is Added a Conference of Master Edmund Spenser, a Gentleman of Note with the Earl of Essex. Touching the State of Ireland A.D. 1595. pp. xi, 284.

Extremities rubbed. Hardbound. With the inked ownership of Richard J. Hall (Richard John Hall [1856-1897], a prominent surgeon of New York and Santa Barbara), and the bookplate of his wife, Elise Collidge Hall. This is Elise Boyer Hall (1851-1924), who gained fame as Americas's first female concert saxophonist, pioneer of concert repertory for saxophone, and patroness of the arts. First Edition. An imaginary account of the trial of the future dramatist before Sir Thomas Lucy on a charge of deer-stealing. Various verses are found in Shakespeare's pocket and are read aloud by the magistrate's clerk. None are especially exciting, and Sir Thomas falls asleep. Walter Savage Landor (1775-1864), English poet and essayist, was educated at Oxford. After a quarrel with his father, Landor went to live in Wales, where he wrote the epic poem Gebir (1798). The middle and most productive years of his life were spent in Italy. There he wrote the greater portion of his voluminous prose work, Imaginary Conversations (1824-1853), consisting of nearly 150 dialogues between notables both ancient and modern. Landor's verse ranges from the epic to the epigrammatic, including many lyrics of great simplicity and intensity. SHAKESPEARE BOX 1.

Dalberg (1750-1806), Theaterintendant, Bühnenschriftsteller u. badischer Staatsminister, war ab 1778 Intendant, später auch künstlerischer Leiter des Nationaltheaters Mannheim. Als Dramendichter unbedeutend, liegt sein Verdienst in der Hebund der deutschen Bühne, so hat er sich um die Erstlingsdramen v. Schiller verdient gemacht. Interessant ist auch die Besetzungsliste, Graf Wallori, der Einsiedler v. Carmel wird von Iffland gespielt. In dem, a. d. S I-XIV, abgedruckten Brief d. Autors an F. W. Gotter, klassizistischer Dramatiker u. Lyriker d. Zt., der einen regelmäßigen formglatten Dramenstil nach französischem Vorbild vertrat, erörtert D. die Frage, ob ein Drama besser in Reimen (wie vorliegender "Mönch v. Carmel") oder in Prosa geschrieben werden soll. [2 Warenabbildungen]

Krähwinkeliade mit Bezug auf die Revolutionswirren jener Zeit. Die am 1. Juli 1848 am Wr. Carl-Theater uraufgeführte Volkskomödie ist das einzige Stück, das Nestroy nicht unter dem Druck der Zensur geschrieben hat, da es in dem kurzen zensurfreien Zeitraum (14. März-11. Nov. 1848) verfasst und aufgeführt wurde. Unter großem Jubel wurde das Werk bis zum Ende der Saison 36-mal gespielt. Das Stück verherrlicht die Ideen und Erfolge der Revolution und zeichnet gleichzeitig ein satirisches Bild der kleinsinnigen Nutznießer und engstirnigen Opfer der Revolution. "Am 31. Oktober besetzte die Armee des Fürsten Windischgrätz die Stadt und mit der Herrlichkeit der 'Freiheit in Krähwinkel' war es zu Ende, in den Straßen und auf der Bühne. Es war nur eine Posse gewesen. - Sie hat großen Wert als von Gedanken durchleuchtetes und über sich selbst hinaus deutendes Zeitdokument ... " (Franz H. Mautner, Nestroy, 1978, S.298 ff). - Die Illustrationen in zeitgenössischem Kolorit zeigen drei Szenenbilder nach Aquarellen von Johann Christian Schoeller (1782-1851) mit Johann Nestroy als Eberhard Ultra: I) Tyrannsky absolutsky regiersky Volcksky despotsky.- II) s' Mädl kommt zum Handkuss - das is a Freud' für die Ältern.- III) Wenn Sie nach London kommen, besuchen Sie mich.
