"ANTHELIA MELINCOURT at the age of twenty-one was mistress of herself and of ten thousand a year and of a very ancient and venerable castle in one of the wildest valleys in Westmoreland." <br /> The opening line of Melincourt is indisputably a rejoinder to Austen's celebrated gambit in Pride and Prejudice 1813 and Peacock's sharpest satire of wealth fortune-hunting and politics recounts the fortunes of the heiress and her social climbing friends as well as the bon-vivant Sir Telegraph Paxarent his philosophical friend Mr. Forester and the career of Sir Oran Haut-ton - a "specimen of the natural and original man" and an orang-utan of high fashion "heightened by a pair of enormous whiskers and the folds of a vast cravat" - who is elected as one of the MPs for the venerable rotten borough of Onevote.<br /> A rare work that is almost invariably seen in worn half leather bindings the present copy of Melincourt is in a nicely preserved near contemporary binding of dark green cloth with printed spine labels the publication date is too early by a few years for this to to be publisher's cloth a very handsome triple-decker with good provenance.

1845008561Wiley and Putnam 1845. Hardcover. Good. Very light foxing. Half leather with wear at edges heel and head. A good plus copy. First of this edition. Copy of William Henry Sedley Smith 1806-1872 with his pencil signature on free front endpaper. Bound with the first American editions of Thomas Love Peacocks works:"Headlong Hall" was Peacock's first novel originally published in England in 1815. Set at a Welsh country manor it is peopled by a set of characters each embodying a particular intellectual obsession and is replete with comic and satirical elements. "Nightmare Abbey" originally published in England in 1818 was Peacock's most famous and enduring work filled with gothic motifs like shadowy manor houses with secret rooms and sliding panels. In point of fact the book is a series of satirical romances poking fun at some the major figures of the Romantic Movement; Byron appears as Mr. Cypress Coleridge Mr. Floskey and Shelley Scythrop Glowry. Smith was an actor and stage manager who first appeared in the United States at the Walnut Street Theatre in Philadelphia in 1827. During his later years he was both actor and stage manager at the California Theatre in San Francisco. Wiley and Putnam hardcover
