Sobre este artículo
1st Edition in this collected format, 1887. Frontispiece portrait of Edward Alleyn with tissue guard. Decorated headers / tailpieces. Good condition, boards a little rubbed, with armorial bookplate of Alfred J Reynolds to front pastedown, hinges cracking (beginning to expose netting beneath), previous sellers pencil note to reverse of front endpaper "First Mermaid issue with the suppressed blasphemy pages", and very occasional marginal pencil annotations.
Includes the first publication of Richard Brome's charges of blasphemy levelled against Marlowe (Pages 428-431). Havelock Ellis' decision to include this apparently offended both J.A Symonds and the publisher, Vizetelly to the extent that this work was withdrawn. Subsequent editions omitted Bromes' note on Marlowe's "damnable opinions", and Vizetelly denounced Ellis for making such 'monstrous abominations......public'.
