178318291783 Couverture rigide Londres, sans mention d'éditeur, 1783. Deux volumes in-16 (12 x 7 cm) reliure pleine basane d'époque, tranches dorées, triple filet doré d'encadrement sur les plats, dos lisse orné de fleurons dorés, pièces de titre et de tomaison en maroquin olive, quelques frottements aux charnières et épidermes sur les plats, coiffe inférieure du tome I arasée. Tome I : faux-titre, titre, 160 pages, marque d'étiquette au 1er contreplat ; tome II : faux-titre, titre, 189 pages, quelques feuillets brunis. Ex-libris gravé et contrecollé au 1er contreplat. The Complaint, or Night-Thoughts on Life, Death, & Immortality est l'oeuvre phare du Révérend Edward Young, un poème épique, méditatif et philosophique rédigé en vers blancs. Le poème a été écrit après une série de deuils personnels dévastateurs pour l'auteur : le décès de son beau-fils, Narcissa, le décès de sa femme, Elizabeth, et le décès de son gendre, Philander. Ces pertes successives ont plongé Young dans une profonde mélancolie, qui est le moteur central de l'œuvre. Le poème se présente comme le journal nocturne d'une âme en deuil. L'œuvre est divisée en neuf parties, appelées "Nights" (Nuits). Notre ensemble de deux volumes (Vol. I & II) regroupe les premières Nuits (Nuit I à IV, puis Nuit V à IX). Le poème se déroule symboliquement entre minuit et l'aube. L'obscurité est le moment privilégié pour la réflexion solitaire et la confrontation avec la mortalité. Chaque Nuit est une méditation autonome, mais contribue à une progression thématique globale, allant du désespoir à la consolation et à l'espoir. Ce poème, qui a notamment inspiré des philosophes des Lumières (Diderot, Rousseau) s'inscrit dans le mouvement pré-romantique européen. Bon exemplaire.
