An English translation of Solomon Gessner's 'Tod Abels' or 'The Death of Abel.' The translator is not named but this is believed to be an unauthorized 1770 London printing of a version of Mary Collyer's much-reprinted 1761 English translation. Reference: ESTC No. T94316. ~KKK~ Gessner 1730 - 1788 was a Swiss painter and poet. Collected editions of Gessner's works were repeatedly published 2 vols 1777-1778 finally 2 vols. 1841 both at Zurich. J.L.Lowes notes that Mary Collyer's translation of the original was as common as Daniel Defoe's 'Robinson Crusoe': 'No book of foreign growth has ever become so popular.' He goes on to say that 'Byron read it when he was eight years old and denied with a little too much emphasis its influence on his play 'Cain.' The influence is equally clear for Samuel Taylor Coleridge he maintains: 'The Wandering Jew and Cain together took possession of the astral body of an ancient Mariner.' In Lowes J.L.
