Sobre este artículo
Roxburge Club, printed for Henry Hicks Gibbs, Esq., by Stephen Austin, Hertford, first edition, 1865. Roxburghe maroon morocco spine and boards, title printed in red and black, small 4to, 26 cm,. [8], xxxvi, 334, [1] pp. The first modern edition of the Middle English verse romance Generides, which was composed in the Midlands in the 14th century. This Roxburghe Club edition is scarce - the edition was probably substantially less than 100 copies. It is attractively printed by Stephen Austin of Hertford, with the half-title, title-page, dedication page and list of members printed in red and black, and Furnivall's inimitable paraphrase set in small type as shoulder notes to the text. The volume includes a 'postscript' containing additional fragments of the version of Sir Generides (supplied by W. Aldis Wright) and a glossary of terms and index. Covers rubbed, worn at extremities, some loss of gilt titling to spine, the prelims and preface have been opened but the main text remains unopened, internally Very Good.
