183353548Philadelphia: Carey & Lea 1833. Near fine. First US edition of the most bookish of Austen's novels - in a stunning fine art binding by the acclaimed Argentinian design bookbinder Sol Rébora. Often misread as critical of the gothic novels that were popular at the period of its first composition NORTHANGER ABBEY is a more complex exploration of the genre that is especially notable for its passages in defense of the novel form - written uncharacteristically in first person directly from the narrator. First published in late 1817 in three volumes this is the first edition to appear in the United States published in two volumes by Carey & Lea in an edition of only 1250 copies; it includes the famous "Biographical Notice of the Author" that first revealed Austen's name to the public as the author as her books were all published anonymously in her lifetime. <br /> <br /> Sol Rébora is an internationally recognized design bookbinder based in Buenos Aires. Her works embody a minimalistic elegance that is nevertheless subtly complex as in the carefully structured multiple layers used here. They are not only visually stunning but supremely tactile. From Rèbora's artist statement: "The cloth texture is achieved using silk with a patterned design that evokes the aesthetic of the time period in which the original edition was produced creating a visual connection with antique paper. This design also appeals to the collective memory of how custom bindings from the early 19th century might have appeared complete with deep-relief hot-stamping impressions." A magnificent unique copy of an Austen first. Two 12mo volumes 6.75'' x 4.25'' each. Modern full grey-lavender design binding by Sol Rébora in Can Can structure with one layer of cotton cloth and two layers of Japanese paper each element hand-painted with acrylics and textured with a patterned design impressed with deep-relief hot-stamping from silk; spines and boards stamped in dark grey. Cotton and abaca handmade paper grey-pink endpapers. 195 1; 196 pages. Light pencil notation to title of Vol. 2. Some offsetting marks to endpapers from earlier binding; light browning to leaves a few small stains. Bright. Carey & Lea unknown

A few small marginal brownspots. <br/><br/><em>First appearance of an remarkable paper containing an extensive set of observations on the sunspots intermingled with what Herschel called "ideas that obtruded themselves" at the time of observation."Herschel's interest in the sun was naturally stimulated by the realization that of all the stars it alone is close enough for detailled examination. he was aware of the various existing theories of the physical constitution of the sun. In a long paper published in 1795 he mentions some of them before his own observations.In 1801 in a second long paper the paper offered here in which he arranged his observations according to relevant physical questions he modified his earlier account of the sun to include in its constitution an interior layer of dark clouds not unlike our own this layer serving to shield the solar inhabitants from the exterior luminous layer. </em> unknown

183353550Philadelphia: Carey & Lea 1833. Very good plus. First US edition of Austen's first novel - in a stunning fine art binding by the acclaimed Argentinian design bookbinder Sol Rébora. Austen's first novel uses the love stories of two sisters to explore the complexities and contradictions in the gendered expectations of the Regency era: a woman will be praised for her capacity to feel emotion her sensibility but not too much; a woman will be praised for her independent and responsible nature her sense but not too much. First published in late 1811 in three volumes this is the first edition to appear in the United States published in two volumes by Carey & Lea in an edition of only 1250 copies. <br /> <br /> Sol Rébora is an internationally recognized design bookbinder based in Buenos Aires.
