Large octavo three volumes: 1-2 i-iv v-vii viii ix-xiii xiv-xvi 1 2-486 487-488: blank; i-x xi-xiv xv-xvi 1 2-575 576: blank; i-x xi-xiv xv-xvi 1 2-477 478-480: blank 182 illustrations from designs by Alexandre Ferdinandus pseudonym of Ferdinand Avenet title pages printed in red and black original green cloth printed paper labels affixed to spine panels all edges untrimmed. Later edition. A translation of LE JUIF ERRANT 1844-45. Sue "achieved great but brief celebrity as a feuilletonist in the early 1840s when radical periodicals fielded him as the chief rival of their royalist adversaries' champion storyteller Alexandre Dumas. His early melodramas of bloody piracy gave way to sweeping analyses of city life paying particular attention to the criminal activities of rich and poor like LES MYSTERES DE PARIS 1842-43. Another sprawling epic was LE JUIF ERRANT 1844-45 in which the descendants of a man who once aided the Wandering Jew are summoned to Paris to receive the fortune which has been gathering interest for centuries. The supernatural elements are symbolic after the fashion of ABASVERUS 1833 by Edgar Quinet 1803-1895; the Jew stands for dispossessed laborers and his consort Herodias for downtrodden womankind Sue was a feminist of sorts as well as a radical socialist." - Clute and Grant eds The Encyclopedia of Fantasy 1997 p. 904.
