Sobre este artículo
Norfolk, CT: New Directions, 1941. Cloth. Near Fine/Very Good +. Rockwell Kent. An impressive copy of this 1941 Rockwell Kent-illustrated edition, #46 OF ONLY 100 COPIES SIGNED BY KENT AT THE LIMITATION. Tight and Near Fine to Fine in a crisp, price-intact ($3.50), VG+ dustjacket, with very light chipping at the spine crown and very light wear along the rear panel's outer hinge (with mild darkening and several small closed tears). Still though, handsome and very presentable. Thick quarto, dual text, with the original German on each verso and the newly-translated English (by C.F. Mac Intyre) on each facing recto. Rockwell Kent's incomparable woodcuts beautifully complementing Faust's dramatic text.
Sinopsis
Ihr naht euch wieder, schwankende Gestalten, Die fruh sich einst dem truben Blick gezeigt. Versuch ich wohl, euch diesmal festzuhalten? Fuhl ich mein Herz noch jenem Wahn geneigt? Ihr drangt euch zu! nun gut, so mogt ihr walten, Wie ihr aus Dunst und Nebel um mich steigt; Mein Busen fuhlt sich jugendlich erschuttert Vom Zauberhauch, der euren Zug umwittert.
