192558755London: George Allen & Unwin 1925. First edition. Spine slightly faded else nearly fine. First edition of these two complementary studies of Shelley both focusing on his psychosexual nature. Carpenter in the first part of the book is "impelled to conclude that the poet's nature was really intermediate or double in character -- INTERMEDIATE as between the masculine and feminine or DOUBLE as having that twofold outlook upon the world. The time has gone by when a remark of this kind could be interpreted as derogatory." In the second part Barnefield brings forward "considerable positive evidence from Shelley's life and writings to show that in him was a strangely double nature and that there was certainly a homosexual COMPONENT in his make-up."

He provides full bibliographical descriptions necessary for identifying these works and understanding their interpretative agenda as well as extensive quotations showing how translators commentators editors and publishers mediated Adam Smith's ideas. This publishing history also serves as an anthology of contemporary critical response to a text at first marginalized by the government and the book trade then adopted by intellectuals seeking an ideological basis for the French Revolution and ultimately established as a canonical work of economic thought requiring commentary and scholarly apparatus.
