Bemerkung:
2 Bände. - Erste kritische Ausgabe des Hauptwerks des englischen Schriftstellers Richard Brathwait (auch: Brathwaite, 1588-1673); gleichzeitig die neunte Ausgabe überhaupt. Hg. von Joseph Haslewood (1769-1833) nach der EA. - Eins von 125 Exemplaren (die Liste der Subskribenten auf Seite [viii] des ersten Bandes). - Allibone 1 (1859), 239. --- "A well executed and well edited reprint of the first edition by Mr. Haslewood, in which he declared the result of his discovery of the author. It contains not only an exact fac-simile in the second volume of the first edition of the work, but also a life of the author extending to forty-five pages; an introduction giving an account of the various previous impressions, and of the mode of his discovery of the author, and the grounds upon which that discovery was founded; some copious notes on the title of the book, and on the Itinerary; a collation of the text of the first edition of the same with later editions; a very valuable and copious bibliographical catalogue of the various works of Braithwaite, in which more than twenty works of his, before considered anonymous, were restored to their rightful author; and the number of which has since been increased in the present work. It has also indexes to both volumes, and a list of subscribers to the whole of the impression, which was limited to 125 copies, and is embellished with two portraits of Brathwaite [...]. From the limited number which was printed of these volumes, they are now become scarce, and sell high; and from the interesting nature of their contents, will always possess an intrinsic value independent of this quality" (Corser, Collectanea Anglo-Poetica 2, 1861, 429f). - In englischer Sprache. - Deutlich berieben und bestoßen; erste und letzte Seiten gering fleckig; die Bindung des zweiten Bandes hinten mit etwas zuviel Spiel; gute Exemplare. --- First edition of the famous Haslewood edition (one of 125 copies). - Some wear to the boards; very minor foxing to the first and to the last pages; the binding of volume two in the last gatherings slightly weekened. Otherwise and all in all good copies.
