- First
Portland, Maine: Thomas B. Mosher. Near Fine with no dust jacket. 1895. Limited/Numbered Edition; First Printing. Card Covers. Slight creasing along the front joint. Spine and head edge of the back cover slightly darkened. ; Artist and polymath Michelangelo's poetry of personal relationships and personal feuds. The sonnets to Tommaso dei Cavalieri were long interpreted as possibly homoerotic and such sonnets had personal pronouns changed in early translations. Sonnets expressing love for the poet Vittoria Colonna were reciprocated until the end of her life. Other verse expresses Michelangelo's feelings about personal slights and his dismissal of those he disliked. This 1878 translation "into rhymed English" by John Addington Symonds restores the original personal pronouns of the verse and most modern scholarship holds that Michelangelo's relationships were entirely platonic. A prefatory note infers that Mosher took liberties in revising Symond's translation in minor ways to accommodate subsequent scholarship. This copy is number 26 of 50 on Japan Vellum. Bound in stiff Japan Vellum covers with Yapp edges folding and overlapping at the fore and head edges. The cover design is uncredited. Titled "The Sonnets of Michael Angelo Buonarroti" on the cover in brown Italic font over a floral design and again on the page preceding the sonnets. Comprised of a Poem, 77 Sonnets, Notes and 2 Appendices. Tissue-guarded frontispiece of "Vittoria Colonna/from a design by Michael Angelo" (Buonarroti). In this book from the Bibelot Series (not the Bibelot chapbooks), the body text is Elzevir Italic Body 8 typeface, Mosher stating, "It is the only series of Italic books ever printed in this country," Printed by Smith & Sale, Portland, Maine, likely supervised by Frank Mangum, pressman. This is an uncommonly nice copy from a series that often does not age well. Nicer still by being a limited edition on Japan Vellum. Very clean and hovers between VG+ and NF.; The Bibelot Series; Drawings; Narrow 8vo 8" to 9" tall; 1, cviii, 1 pages .

Light, 1/2" long impression at the head edge of the front cover and a similar, very faint impression to the head edge of the back cover. Lower corners of the boards are bumped at the fore edge.

The memories are detailed and evoke both the chilled, gray days and the beauty of Dublin. Founded and operated by women, entirely, the Cuala Press was focused on new works in the emerging Irish Literary Revival.

The rubaiyat are considered by some to exalt earthly pleasure, consider death, and point out the unreliability of religion in addressing human issues.
