Sobre este artículo
London: The Fleuron, 1924. Cloth. Near Fine/Very Good Indeed. 9" by 7". Thomas Lowinsky. A lovely limited edition copy of John Milton's lesser known but still popular poem 'Paradise Regained', illustrated with beautiful engravings by Thomas Lowinsky. A limited edition work, limited to three-hundred and fifty copies, of which this is numbered forty-seven. In the original unclipped dustwrapper. 'Paradise Regained' is a blank verse poem that deals with the temptation of Christ, as is recounted in the Gospel of Luke. Illustrated with three plates, head pieces, and three additional duplicate plates to the pocket to the rear. Collated, complete. Written by John Milton, who is best known for his epic poem 'Paradise Lost', which is generally considered to be one of the greatest works ever written. Illustrated by Thomas Lowinsky. In the original quarter cloth binding with paper to the boards, in the original unclipped dustwrapper. Externally, smart. A little bumping to the head and tail of the spine. Dustwrapper with light edgewear, resulting in chips to the head and tail of the spine, and some small closed tears. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are bright and clean. Pages uncut to the top edge. Near Fine
Sinopsis
Paradise Regained demonstrates Milton's genius for fusing sense and sound, classicism and innovation, narrative and drama, fortifying not merely our sense of what is beautiful but what is human as well. It leaves readers with no choice but to commit themselves totally with their minds and with their hearts.
